Well, as the new seat arrive yesterday I thought I would take the opportunity to trial fit it, the tank and side panels and take a few photos in the sunshine to get an idea of how its all coming on - decided to refit the original lower tank mouldings even though there are a few cracks, but who of us hasn't got a few cracks here and there as we approach 50, 60 or higher.....?
Will be tapping out the petcock retaining screw threads next week when my metric tap set arrives - nearly all my tools are imperial.....
A 'few' photos below, I'm really pleased with how it's all coming along and it's been great therapy for me - hopefully by the end of November the headlight and brackets will be fitted, carbs balanced and new tyres fitted, then I can keep polishing it until I get my licence back in July next year.
