Been having a huge organise of all my spares to what I want to keep and what to sell.
This is what I found that can be used on this bike,
So basically I can see this one also turning into a full build but it will definitely be used to get my other fairing painted.
Clutch lever
Headlights (only got one rubber though)
Sprocket cover with speedo drive and cable
Coolant and vac pipes
Set of low mileage clocks (UK model?)
Ecu and Mmax box
Horn
Loom, this needs a right clean up!
Throttle and grips
Luggage hooks
Clean up the rear brake res
And the undertray (with new heat shielding)

Got the loom cleaned and retaped. Now all routed on the bike
RegRec and rear coil tested and mounted too.
Bought a master cylinder rebuild kit a while ago for a brake that just needed bleeding properly.
Put it to good use today.

Sick of looking at that shock cover so I picked this up
The spring was quite chipped so I changed it for one I had already.
Fitted. Also changed the wheels from my other bike.
Blasted the rear caliper.
Painted, with new rubbers, seals and pistons.

Dug out the switchgear from my spares that had the wiring hacked and picked a scuffed one for a cheap price.

This bike also got a bit of loving
The undertray was finished off with the fitting of the ecu, indicators and number plate.
and only a little thing but I fitted the rear brake master cylinder and reservoir
I was also busy making a lockset for it. Rather than buy a cheap knock off set, I took apart a barrel and with more than a few spares adapted it to fit the key (which fits the tank and pillion seat).
