K1's tank off to Menno
hairygit:
All that paint has a plus side, maximum protection for the exterior from rust!

Hi Folks,
Menno has almost finished my tankset which has had the dents repaired and been blasted inside and out and that revealed a small hole around the tank neck (top edge) which had been patched up with resin. Menno repaired the hole with metal and has painted the tankset in its original Candy Ruby Red, including hand painting the strips and also recommended the tank was lined as an extra safeguard - photos below of the excellent work so far. I'm now eagerly waiting for the finished paint set to arrive and the studio photos of the finished job.
Sadly, since sending the tank etc to Menno in April/May and returning from holiday on the 26 June I had a serious stroke on Friday 28 June and spent 7 days in hospital. I am now recovering at home with the excellent help of the Acute Stroke Team from Frimley Park Hospital, Camberley - thank god for the NHS who were and are being absolutely fantastic! However, whilst I'm making a good and steady recovery, I'll be surrendering my driving licence to the DVLA for at least a year. Luckily, I have a very good friend who will ride my 76 Z900 and the K1 when it's back together to keep their wheels turning.
Cheers, and take care!
Andrew

Hi Andrew. Sorry to hear your news. Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery, and hopefully you'll be back on the bikes before you know it! Take care. Harold.

Sorry to hear the news, keep on your consultants good side and do exactly what he sez, you will need his help with DVLA in the future, NEVER give up with the Swansea numpties they dont know their own rules and change them frequently.
Al the best
