i've had this 5 years in my shed I bought it of a good friend of mine who had it in his garage for nearly 20 years i believe. I've been doing some work on it recently and finally getting stuck into it. This Bike is known to people within this forum so wish me luck. this is a bit of catch up post
not much left of the original bike tbf the engine has also been swapped. has a set of 29mm smoothbores
stipped the bike down and i'm fortunate to know a welder fabricator John Bregazzi here in Derby, he was able to fabricate and replace the indicator brackets and rear exhaust hangers
He also restored the rear shock mounts centre stand brackets and rear brake pedal bracket. Top job
Engine has been stripped and i shall get to that later.
I have been slowly getting parts together as i come accross them, I shall be sending the bike over to someone i have used before for some alignment works as the standard swing arm fitted is now too loose.
Bike ready for frame alignment work chain is now fitted
