That's one neat looking rebuild - I have a handle on just how much hard work is involved!

I agree on the fork ears with Ken (sorry!) but she is going to be a great looking bike Phil. Great work!

Those fork ears are temporary only. I’ll be using them on the Triton rebuild. Originals are being rechromed and expected soon. ;D. I also have another pair about to be rechromed and will be sold on this forum.

Looks good Phil, shame about the fork ears, the replacements look ok but the bike would suit the originals better IMO.

me too!

The front discs look mint and totally standard, a massive well done :)

Hi, Oddjob. Yes, very much interested. Can you pm me details please. One of the standard badges I have is badly mauled. Looking round it seems I’ll have to have the screw type fixings rather than the original post/push fit type :(

That’s interesting, mine are pin and clip, which accords with the CMNSL microfiche. But I stand to be corrected.
