Honda enthusiast:
I'm relieved, there were unobtainable Laverda master cylinders in the box, I've learnt something - never strip down two motorcycles at once to save on a double trip to the powder coaters. In my case the return journey is two days driving but I'm only going to do one at a time for now on ...with the way costs have rocketed but not recoverable in the selling price , I'll not be doing any more after the Laverda and Kettle

Johnny4428:
I have a big enough job with keeping track on parts from just one project at a time. I’ve got another 550 in the shed that requires building. I am going to attempt something different with it. Going out of my comfort zone to build a cafe type build. There is what roughly looks like a bike there at the moment, so looking forward to that. But can’t take on anything else, storage full!

Honda enthusiast:
All done now, just a check over and tighten all the bolts along with replacing the cheap fuel tap...on start up the carbs flooded and removed some of the uncured vht paint from the crankcases so after it gets warmer, I'll mask off carefully and repaint/touch in the small areas. It's quiet and smooth, like it 😊

Thanks Ted, I am quite pleased yes, the only issue is the aftermarket seat foam is quite hard and doesn't give so it's a bit more of a reach to the floor, care needed when paddling it about
