Progress, or lack of it...

[r1_pete]

I need some motivation.....
Apart from a pile of expensive parts, this is all I've got to show for about 18 months part time effort, a re finished frame, a couple of brackets to mount CBR600 rearsets.
The last pic is the look I'm aiming for, but its motivational value is declining..

Keep at it pete,the satisfaction you will get when u ride it in the good weather is great.plus having something unique is special.i took my cafe to the nw200 road race and parked it up.it drew a big crowd

Keep at it Pete. Get stuck in and it could be ready for the late spring.

Pete,
The job is for sure daunting if only considering the end product. Like the SAS (whoever!) crossing a desert... to look at the horizon is miserable, and the best way to cope mentally is to look down, ie one step at at time. So, perhaps 'forget the project' and simply set / concentrate on small bite-sized tasks; that eventually will all come together...
This all said, if your hearts gone outta the project and its making you unhappy...
Good luck in all eventualities...

It's all clean and shiny.       
I really enjoyed that part of my rebuild when it all started coming together. Once you get a few more parts added to the frame you will change your outlook.
If you get the wheels on, it will make a big difference to your mentality. Keep at it man, it will be well worth it.
Good luck.

I am in a similar position as you Pete, very little time or money plus cold garage equals no progress. At some point the enthusiasm comes back and it will get done.

Hang int here Iv got an almost complete 750 sitting in the garage gathering dust.Iv got to strip her down and pull the engine again because of a busted weld.

I think its all been said, set yourself up with some bite sized tasks, take a pic before, and then one when you have completed each task. good idea is to put the project pic somewhere where you can see it daily (maybe on the sun visor of your car) with some pics of the completed items. Its a good reminder of whats to come. also maybe place some pics of before and after (small tasks) on this site? the guys are great, helpful, and will give you all the motivation you need.
best of luck and keep up the good work, you will get there!

Thanks All,
I popped the modded tank and seat on just to check the look, just need to press on and finish it.

Building the engine into the new cases is next...

I Love engine building. Just make sure everything is clean, and it's job done.

The garage can be bloody miserable this time of year.... clear the kitchen table & lace up new wheels, cover the seat, fabricate the loom, polish all those little bits so that they can bolt straight on when the times comes...anything you can think of that can be done in the house & won't quite put the missus into orbit...
