Laverda Dave:
Well done Ted  :). Crack open the bubbly whilst you trawl Ebay for that CB750 Project you've always promised yourself (or a Maico  ;))
Happiness is turning on the fuel and the carbs don't flood  :).
Post some photos of the complete bike wearing it's newly painted suit 8)

Good news, you must be itching to road test it.

Spitfire:
Such a deeply satifying moment when it comes back to life, now get it on the road.

Cheers

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Not sure about elsewhere in the UK, here in Derby it's still pretty cold for a long period of bike work.
It was only 58 deg F in there today - well below my comfort zone tbh.

I've decided to set the carbs up using a Morgan Carbtune Pro 4 that I ordered today so the tank will not be fitted until it's running with balanced carbs. It's been a relief to have it running as many here can empathise after a full strip down.
To spur me on I would like a couple of weeks of warm sunny weather.

I've have quite a lot of backlogs to clear in the house & garden before I take the 500 out for a run I will post some pics when the tank & side panels are in place.
