really lovely A1, well done indeed

here is a suggestion

I would be up for wiring it to a board and framing it behind glass hang on the wall in the man cave

brake glass in the advent of a brake down

and go to lidl and get some tools to go under the seat total cost 20 quid and i am sure they will work better

ive been using belgom alu for 30 years, and for my money, you cannot beat it for mirror polishing (as garry says) the outer cases, as not only does it shine beautifully, it lasts for months, the trick is to polish with it, buff off with something like kitchen roll, then another buff off with a cloth, then repeat as often as you like to the level of shine you wish, fantastic stuff, a tub lasts forever

ps beautiful A1, really really nice

This came today , will sadly have to wait for dvla to assign by post as I couldn’t do it on line now thinking it’s a bit tacky after a good old 76 Plate ... pics on bike soon

Good County Antrim Reg

And fitted ,

Winter work continues, paint set off ready for a refurb, battery tray and a few other bits off for powder coating and deep clean under way... most of one side done, can’t face cleaning the wheels atm though
Few pics for my info mainly

Getting nervous now ....Can’t wait to check out the colour but not finished yet ... flattening, stripes and top coat still to be done ... As always with Diamond sky blue , three different colours even from new paint ...

Looks good in the pics seems green enough

Thanks...it would appear it’s a green metallic base with a blue xirallic ? Layer on top?

So chuffed , got the battery tray and some other bits back from the powder coater..., managed to get it all back together and everything seems to still work.. I don’t have any bolts left over .....Spent the last few weeks wearing away my fingerprints with cleaning stuff..Just waiting on the paint set and saddle now .... Sorry about all the pics , this is my little record of me and the bike

Video from the paint guy picking up nest week

So collected them and couldn’t help the temptation for a trial fit .. the saddle used to rub the tailpiece will have to look at that now
Pretty sure I can see blue green and black in there

So the sun came out, bike came out , not a colour I would have chosen , but love it now

Well got the half serviced, cleaned up petcock back in, had put the tap turning connector in 180 degrees out so the lever was all out of whack and lots of petrol everywhere.. got that sorted and it started first time after seven months, well chuffed just watching to see how much petrol leaks overnight ...
