Was looking for replacement shocks about an inch longer to make it easier to get on the centre stand and came across this Honda 750/900 dohc pair new at £170 of list, couldn't resist as I had a pair on my Kettle and they are head and shoulders above others available

And after plugging all the ports and breathers, I've soda blasted to engine as a first attempt to clean it...I'll be completing that job with brushes and gunk red degreaser on the bench before painting with vht silver...after blasting I've removed the visible engine bolts to zinc plate them, the lower crankcase halves are secured by the side casings and some bolts from my bolts box to stop them separating and breaking the Honda bond seal...

It's going to be an easy makeover, the bike ran perfectly before the strip down to paint the engine, so it's getting a powder coated frame and brackets, chrome getting redone in triple plate, engine paint, zinc plating of fasteners, brakes overhaul, Dyna s ignition and fireblade coils and a new David Silver replica four pipe exhaust...the front rim is getting replaced with a nos DID genuine one I've had for years...i hope to have it all done for autumn this year
