Hi Dave, all the blasting was done by Agbrigg Chromers in Leeds. Tony is a top man as you say, nothing is to much trouble.
Do you still have the carb balances???. If so may I borrow them in the not to distant future?.

Finished at last. Seems to have fought me all the way this one.
Looking forward now to putting on a few miles whilst the sun's out.......

Looking really nice well done.
Was just reading about the starter clutch problem and looking at the photos' on this thread and wondered if it has been over on its side at some point that might explain the cracked crankcase and the issues of spacing you have had. The missing embossed logo on the generator casing threw me and the crank taper looked to be galled but it could just be the picture.
Hope we get some summer so you can enjoy it now.
