Looks like an excellent finish on the cases by the way.

It is ;D
The cases came out reallynice, I'm realy chuffed with it tbh, the frame went off for plastic coating on Thursday along with a bunch of bits so that'll be ready ror when I come back.
Theres a ton of stuff at the chromers being done and some more polishing to go. I've a few bits to drop off at various places but I hope to have all prepped before I go away, come back, pay and pick up everything and have a monthe of shed time fiddling when I get back in October.
I've just discovered a hole in the petrol tank under where the badges go so need to find a some bits to get that sorted but in real time, I'm just stuck for tyres, paint, and an end can and getting the seat covered once mocked up how thock everythings going to be.
I'm kinda getting there. Didnt think I'd be uttering those words quite yet but there's time for an enormouse carasroph*ck so not counting my blessings quite yet. ;D

Thats looking great Roo. I think you went the right way doing the engine before cycle parts. I did the opposite and then spent time waiting for the engine to be done and had nothing to be getting on with.
Oddjob:
I always do the engine last, I did the engine first one time and when I'd done the rest the engine had filled with condensation. The oil was like mayonnaise and it hadn't even turned over by that point. I ended up taking it apart again just to clean the insides.

This from you Ken, you’re the only person I’m waiting on bits for?
Just crossed my address out cos this is public etc but was this supposed to be the clutch shims?
I say supposed as it came to me open and completely empty. I’m only guessing that it’s from you.
If it was, don’t worry I’ll get some made I know you only had ten sets done and all sold, I’ll get some somewhere, could you send me the dims that I can pass onto a supplier?
Cheers mate, told you I had awful luck……………….case in point!
