the ugly reat is now complete,ive hidden the rought edges and built a light box.couple of bays should see it running with the present motor.
kal,if youre sure you dont want that 400 motor ,how about the sissy bar and the collector box for it?and ill throw in a ride on the beast.xjrjohn

I'm not using that motor anytime soon, to be honest I'm not sure how much it needs to bring it back to life...

It is a bit of a barn find

I need to figure out how to get it past herself but it shouldn't be a problem!

I need a some 'help' making the supporting brackets for the sissybar and I was wondering if I could hijack your radiator surrounds if you've not got plans for them.

As far as I was told it came out of a running superdream and I've never taken it apart. However it did live in the bike pit at ours with the ivy as a rainguard.

That'd be cool, saves me taking the radiator up to him in a rucksack Even if he dosn't answer his phone or reply to queries on his Live journal!

A) I was asleep when you phoned.
B) The specific details required to answer the querie on LJ are not something which I wish for everyone to know.

Should be able to come up at the weekend, if thats ok.

Thats sound by me,If you could call at mine first(Anytime)and pick these bits up for Kal.That would be absolutely spiffing.You can peruse the awesome beast in the flesh(Or metal as the case may be).xjrjohn

Shock horror,The beast lives.We have actually ridden the thing.Not far as its a long way from being finished.It still has the 250 motor in it and the original exhaust.,But these might stay till we m.o.t it.Just a few jobs to do,Like brakes would be useful,rear lights and indicators.We might get it on the road yet.xjrjohn

having it legally on the road is deeply, deeply wrong...

It looks pi$$ed...

Is it staring at me?

I am seriously considering leaving that motor as it is,Just work on the internals and get it running.It turns over quite nicely.xjrjohn
