Been Around the Block
Hi guys,
Yet another build thread for you. I hope this project doesn't burn out and die half way through. Fingers crossed. I don't want to repeat myself here so in order to see the very beginning of this brain worm follow the link to my introduction.

So, I've got meself a CL350 which has been lovingly named Ankle Biter. So lets start from the top. When I first got the bike I immediately noticed allot of the bits and pieces were fairly shagged out. The forks were pitted really bad, the rear shocks are most likely buggered and a few other odds and ends are not worth mentioning. On the other side the engine is free and has fantastic compression. The frame has surface rust and not much to complain about. the wiring loom hasn't been eaten by rats so I was quite optimistic after a very long think and considering just how much work I've got ahead of me.
Here are a few of the very first photos from a few months ago. Ill be posting allot more as I go. If anyone sees anything they wish to comment on or buy or trade or just want to just shout abuse then feel free.
