Been super busy at the mo so sorry for lack of posts.
Finally got the bike running. Turned out the pod filters were starving the carbs, so removed and up jetted.
Been riding her a little and enjoying the english summer.
I'll post a few pics up as now a fully running bike! I can't quite believe it.
Absolutely on. It acts as a fork brace to remove any rotation or flex from the forks.
If you do decide to remove it, you should remove the brace from the underside of the mudguard, paint it black and put that back on. You'll never notice it but it may just stop you coming off! ;D
Took the bike out in the dark yesterday. Found out the headlight on these old bikes is very poor.
Went to check the lamp and found out it's a sealed unit!
I may need to upgrade, anyone had the same issue and upgraded?
If so what options are out there?
Putting the bike through it paces. Few gremlins sorted out. Squeaky front brake pad. Rear swing arm bushes shot.
Strip down coming soon.
New Antigravity battery mount made.
Looking good mate , starting to take shape you cant beat polished covers to set off the motor 8) is that sunshine peeping thru ya windows makes a change from rain eh , just as it starts again look forward to ya updates mate
Certainly does! It's been 'clear' for the last few days, but the rain hit again today! (I was out cycling in it)
Project looks great, maybe we'll do a UK meet up over the summer! This project really looks like it's coming together now too - finalised your paint idea's? (since the tank and tail are sort of 'avocado green' now)
