Been Around the Block
It took longer than I thought, just about a year from start to finish. I love the way the bike turned out and I hope you like it too. Thanks for all the support from members along the way. Now, what's next.......

First pic, how the bike came:

Looks great. You'll need to post a video riding it. You mentioned next project. I have gone and bought another bike already and as you know only just started my SR250.
 
Cheers, I like your new 500, should be a good project. I'm still looking for my next bike.
 
Steve- beautiful build me friend! I loved watching that develop as you went along... hat's off to you, a lot of care went into each and every detail.
 
Thanks Bud, most appreciated. I've now got my eye on a Honda CL360 In bits - one of my dream bikes.
 
Bike should be road legal this week. Will use the bike for commuting to work, can't wait.

Didn't like the matt black engine so I've repainted in Satin black enamel, looks much better:

Looking awesome Steve. Engine looks nice saturn.

My vote is get rid of the center stand. I had a clumsy mishap with mine that involved a broken mirror after I put the rear wheel up on my boot one morning. You can guess the rest.

Glad you like the bike. Will probably get rid of the centre stand, but I may need to invest in a longer side stand due to the bike sitting higher.
