It does look good Jim. Now you have to get a decent tank on the Yetman and you'll be all ready.

Hi Jimbo,
Getting it together lookin good, Met a fellow named Gerry over in Kansas , he asked if I knew you as he sold you a frame for a Yammy 500 that you have .Nice bloke he pitted next to Pete & myself each meet & had a rapid XT 500 & XS 650 (let us borrow his tools ,cause we only had a shoe box of tools.) Make sure you drill the breather out in that fuel cap to 3mm & get rid of that right angle fitting on the tap & run a straight one you lose about 20% flow with one right angle. Cheers
