Lovely to see the finished result, it was really worth the journey and hope it carries you on many more.  I've just raised a glass to you and the stunning restoration

Well done Drew, a fabulous feeling when you've completely rebuilt the bike, and it starts so easily and runs so sweet:)) Take care on it, and dont forget to do oil and filter after 3-500 miles, gives all your hard work a great start in it's new life.

[Drew400]

Thank you all, what lovely sentiments!

Indeed I am planning an oil change (and check timing, cam chain tension, etc.) soon.

Brought the keys in from the garage this afternoon for the first time in ages!

Cheers, D.

Great looking bike.
If mine turns out half as good as yours I'll be really pleased

Well done Drew, the bike looks lovely. And the smile on your face says it all.

Happy riding

Looks fab Drew credit to you.

[Drew400]

Thanks chaps.

Now that the bike's pretty much finished (and let's face it, it's never 'finished') I can look forward to all those household DIY jobs that I've been neglecting. Oh joy!

Cheers,

D.
