At last a little bit more work done to the old project been awhile but lockdown helps a bit, definitely on the home stretch should be well sorted for summer , finally finished the wiring got the gauges fitted and my idiot light set up including gear select indicator fuel tank sorted just need a fuel tap outlet then I can spray it up as soon as the weather warms up mocked up and cut the foot peg brackets just a little fettling and the pegs are on happy days as always here's a few pics showing the slow progress keep spannering gang

cheers mate its a the little fiddly bits that are taking time plus I still think wiring is a dark art but the little bits are what makes this one special
 
well at least the lights work and well on the way for the footrests from cardboard to 8mm steel maybe a bit OTT haha
