Although late in from work, had a few good hours in the shed tonight and she’s ready to fire a bit later in the week. Just need to bleed the clutch, bleed the back brake, which was on the cards anyway and put the rear wheel on.
Quite a lot of backwards and forwards re routing cables over bolts and spacers and stuff to get the right length to connect up but I’m pretty happy how she’s sitting, bless her.
Bobbed a spare tank on to run her up and everything primed up. Fuel pumps happy, got good oil pressure and the light out on turn over, coolant’s in and a splash of motion lotion in the tank. Ready to go.


It’s early starts and late finishes at the moment (4:45 leave the yard) so not sure when I’ll get back to it but hope to have her running by Saturday.
Ken, keep all six fingers crossed mate

Unless you’re from Yorkshire!
