Hi young un

Got some slightly better fork legs, which might get you out of jail, for a while.

Got out side today and got the motor shined up and bolted up tight, fitted the chain and chain cover .

Cleaned the coils and mounted them then the indicators and head light ears and shell

Also put the front mudguard on


Image

Image

With this done I've moved my focus over to the carbs going to give them a good clean out and replace the float valves and seats
And then stick them on the bike

If those plug caps are of the resistor type (5k) , get rid of them !
Get some caps with no resistors .
