Yes Pancho,
It will come in blue/white guards. Still have to polish the rear engine plates and straighten the forks.

Regarding the engine plates Al,... they are anodised. I don't like them so I am going to de-anodise them
back to natural  alum. and polish them. I have already done the front ones and they came up a treat.
I just soak them in a water /Drano solution and bingo,......back to natural. Then polish!
Thanks for the comments by the way, I just love the old girl. Something about a Hagon JAP.

Photo on behalf of Mark, sorry I haven't put the others up but for some reason Tinypic won't let me.
I'll try again later.
Thank you

It looks like an Airfix model kit waiting to be assembled. Good to see another one ready to come back.

You may have noticed that the gearbox is missing. All of the gears on the layshaft are rooted thanks to sitting in moisture for 30 yrs. Might have been condensation sitting on top of the oil which was more like
tar with a shovel load of dirt thrown in.
My mate Ant did an amazing job on the frame components. The paint was 2 pack, the same that is used on Kenworth trucks. It looks too good to use. The finish is like glass.
cheers   Mark
