Laverdaroo:
Couldnt remember who had those Ken, I had a feeling it was you as you mentioned them some time ago didnt you?

I had a set of similar 'zocci' ones on an old 6oo Ducati parts chaser we used to thrash about at Motorcycle City when I ran the parts there at Farnborough. They were'nt that bad even though then they were well passed their best :D

Spitfire:
More red paint to get rid of, I have two chainguards, one I painted red so armed with paint stripper, gloves and goggles off we went on a voyage of discovery. I had forgotten how messy this job can get but eventually got there, and discovered wht I had painted it there is some rust on the top of it, so it could go black.

On the strength of this I'm really looking forward to stripping these.

On the plus side I found these

And in the loft amonst other things I found the my "insurance items" a spare set of reconditioned F1 carbs, front and back brake calipers, spare alternator cover and for some reason a few alternator windings.

Cheers

Dennis

Hi Den , nice to see the F2 getting some attention, getting those rock hard Roadrunners off will be a task never mind stripping the paint off, cheers Mick.

Oddjob:
I ended up cutting my tyres off, even with 20" tyre levers they refused to flex over the rim and the rim started getting damaged even when using rim protectors.

Nice to hear from you Mick, and yes getting those tyres off will be fun, I remember getting the TT100's off the F1 afer a lot of years storage.

Cheers
