Part 6 Time to start

New levers turned up so on they went

 

Picked up some vinyl paint from Halfrauds, not an exact match to the blue of the seat fairing but then the seat never was in the first place, and the point of this tart up is exactly that a tart up not a nuts and bolts back to original.

More to come...

Part 5 Bits N Bobs

Got some matting for the garage

 Nowt special but makes scrabbling round of the floor easier.

Take 1 rubble trug and fill with 10 litres of rust cure

 

Dip collector box and header pipes in

 

Then leave for 24 hours or so.

 

More to come...

Part 4 The Collector

managed to get a new, well new to me but secondhand collector box from the bay of e, turned up yesterday and I'm very happy with it, gonna treeat it to a bit of rust prevention then a spray up of some high temp paint and it'll be good to go.

It came with the front header pipes and a stainless link pipe, won't need that unless I decide to fit something aftermarket and fruity like a Tyga Maggot, or the like.

Just need the exhaust bolts and some new gaskets now.

Not gonna get the stainless one made now, this should last a few years.

More to come....

Part 3 No going back now!

more bits are coming off!!!

one seriously fucked collector

Just need to drop the engine now, managed to remove the rest of the front header pipes, need to get some new studs as the ones that were in had rusted, good enough for the bin.

Drained all the fluids ready for a refresh. Fun, Fun, Fun

More to come...
