Thanks Lee.
Maybe we can talk over a beer at the Southern rally. I plan to be ready for that one also.
I have all the parts just need to get it all together.

Had a good day in the garage yesterday
All the electrics are working. Just no ignition sparks as yet.
The next job will be to sort out that problem.
I guess that is why the bike was laid up in the first place.

Finally finished. The issue with the sparks was failed kill switch and I ignition box for the left side was goosed.
But now sparks on all.
Just need to get some pre-mix and give it a prod.
I guess that will be Wednesday next week.
Stay tuned for the final saga

Correct Ray, Quality chrome in Hull did all the chrome. Local paint shop did all the black powder coat.
Just a start up - MOT . steering dampner - and register left to do before enjoyment.

Hi Nigel, Love the bike. Am doing one myself. Where did you get the seat done? Or did you do it yourself? Thanks.
