Weslake Nourish

Just need clutch and ignition fitting, then I'm ready to start it up. These headers are mk2 and are more of an equal length, so I'm happier with these.

I'm just waiting on that ignition thing now, but I found some neat harness or cable ties from an auto jumble a while back. Loads neater than tie wraps

I picked up a handful of similar ones that had been punched out of truck inner tubes, but you could cut them out really. These came from a Lucas stand and I've never seen them before.

Plus, I roughly cut out out a sheet of 10mm foam insulation thats adhesive on one side and stuck it on the underside of my tank where it rests on the frame. Just used a sharp blade to trim excess off when it was in place.

Those are real cool.
Do you know where I may buy some?
 
I bought mine from a stall at a cheaper price, but the same things can be found here..

Finally my ignition unit arrived, actually after I physically collected it, so I had to make a mounting for it. I made a cardboard template to house the Interspan unit and transferred the sizes onto 2mm plate, trimming and folding it (harder with steel). Painted it with etch and then 2k black so I'm about done now. The bikes now running and this is leading up to that clip.

Anyway, it's a total loss 20 volt type system, that will run the bike for 8 hours continual use, so is more than adequate for what I will ever demand from the bike. I doubt I'd want to ride this for more than 2 hours, so being practical it's a good solution.

Here it is back in the workshop after its first 5 mile run. It gets rapid very fast and I'm chuffed to bits with it. The gearbox is as smooth as a Swiss watch and the clutch is nice and light. It needs very little adjustment and I can't wait to ride it around the Isle of Man next month.

MOT booked for next week, so I'll be fully legal and other than some refinement on the wiring harness with multi block connectors instead of bullet connectors and shrink wrap etc, it is completely finished.

Thanks fellas. I'll take some pictures this next week when I can say it's finally finished. Fairing and primary cover are back on and there's little to do now.

Very nice Job with that tray.
 
All legal now and running well. Could do with gauze filters on the carbs, otherwise it's finally finished.
