The rebirth of Lazarus

[mickwinf]

Not much time or weather to ride but did have a quick ride last week. Going much better and flat spot now gone. New exhausts fitted, look and sound good. Was thinking of selling but changed my mind now so safe in garage for now!

Poor Lazarus has been neglected for a while, oil leak still to sort out and having a light issue with the headlamp rim which is a new repro one from silvers. Was never happy with the fit to the original shell so pulled it off to check.it doesn't seem to seat properly so tried an original honda one and fits perfect but is a bit crusty. Tried the new one on another shell and fits a bit better so will have to paint that and try again.

so the repainted headlamp shell is on and the rim fits perfectly, a win. Was also painting a side panel, also now back on along with the badge that went missing. Hope to have the first ride of 2025 and see if i can track down the oil leak from the undeneath of the engine.

Have had a ride out this morning, mostly running ok but seems a bit flat at higher revs as if not getting enough fuel. Plugs are slightly sooty, all standard jets etc and std airbox. Still can't pinpoint the exact oil leak but only a slight drip. Now giving it a polish up.

Considering what you started with i think a small drip is allowable

Done a great job there Mick, nice to see you have it on the road although you have a little tweaking to do.
