To someone who preens and polishes his bike to within an inch if its life, that's not as offensive to my eyes as I thought it might be :lol: Quite a lot of effort has gone into making it look that 'rat'. Think it helps that the image is slightly blurred :)

They'd gleefully do you in north Wales, it's still an offence to not display your current tax disk, admittedly it's a really stupid offence given todays technology but the law's the the law I guess :)

Sorry Dave no effort at all
It has been written off apparently twice my mate bought it as a project after the second time left barrel hanging off subframe hanging off left crankcase split so we got a mate to weld up the crankcase then we fitted second hand rod, barrel, head, piston, rocker cover,throttle body, seat, etc welded the subframe back on i took it out and knew i had to have it
I am waiting for the weather to break then i have waiting here Nitron rear shoc, y piece, Cata Dan throttle body repair kits,stainless casing screw set, in the post are hagon front shoc, Lennie's sprockets.
already fitted are accelerator cable, val singleton air filter, bars above top yoke
With the camping cussion [self inflating] and sheepskin cover on the seat it is comfy enough for 300mile days[not bad for someone disabled eh] i am more than happy with it it has only let me down once breaking down in Llangothen[spelling] due to hall sensor wireing breaking down

I think that about covers it Dai

Did i mention i am working on opening the intake duct out as well i have one here that i am playing with

... You could go down the totally open and free flowing ENC intake * route (I have..).. Though without side panels, it might be a bit open to the elements.


Cheers.





* ENC - Emporers New Clothes.. Leave it off :wink:

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

I have been thinking of cutting the intake tube off the side filling the opening and then opening the front if the airbox top so it can breath from under the tank [hope that makes sence]
