I know mate taken about 8 weeks all in and its not quite finished and the main beam isnt working..hopefully its just a fuse.

I couldnt have done it without help from Fontyyy and Stephen..

Its cost a fair bit though....

Got the brake lines fitted yesterday and took it for a little trundle to the local bike shop to get some new bulbs as both of mine had somehow blown, nothing fell off although it wouldn't bloody start when I came out...think I may haveoiled the plugs up a bit as I was told to take it steady for 20 miles, still it bump started easily enough.

Have a dodgy wire near the front brake switch so my brake light is intermittant to sort and that's it...hopefully it will stay together lol.

I'll hopefully get some decent pics tomorrow if the weather is good...it's quite nice today but I'm nursing a birthday hangover lol

After running it in it was super rich...

Stripped all of the bodywork off again as the bolts had taller out of the speedo drive so I checked over all of the bolts only to find the speedo cable is knackered as well...still who needs a speedo.

Dropped down 2 sizes on the main jet and fuck me it flys, the new motor is taut and responsive and the suspension is just fantastic.

I promise to get some pics next chance I get.
