I've nearly finished my winter project Kettle resto: just a couple of final pieces: clocks are at a Guru's and Tank is with Simon Flying Tiger to work his magic. Then, hopefully come Spring, she will be burbling around the country lanes of deepest Lincolnshire.

Just finished my Kettle resto, now nice and shiny: on her maiden voyage the RH indicators packed up - but I guess it could have been a lot worse 
Here she is minus the one dead indicator
Hopefuly put some miles on her this Summer (assuming we get a summer this year)
Cheers Tim

ZedHead: re Kettles, spares are not too bad to get hold of, there are a couple of long standing Suzuki dealers with a big range of Classic Parts, and its helped that Suzuki Japan saw the interest in classics with a potential revenue stream, and started re-producing 1500 Vintage Parts mainly for Kettles and RGV250's. Not sure why Kwak dont do the same ??
There are also some good established merchants about with loads of NOS & pattern stuff.
Cheers

Come winter, I am going to have to get mine looking like that.
After a wee mishap, I decided to bling up my Kettle resto: treated her to a new Flake Orange paint job: looks really nice in the flesh !
When I collected my paint work, there was a Z1 paint set awaiting collection: it was Black Metalic and Lime Green: looked stunning
- wondered if it was it anyione from on here ??
