Looks fantastic Steve, will we see it at CD?
  Hey Wayne,
 Will be at  CD
Hope to have  the  bike running in  2 or 3 weeks time  &  get out for a couple of rides   to   set up / run in &   to become a little more accustomed to riding this   bike.

    Regards,
                  Steve

Very nice job. I'd love to see it with the correct Hella tail light. It would be the icing on the cake! Keep an eye out on eBay for them. I do love the enduro version of the Huskys - especially when the lights work  ;D. Makes it easier to sneak around the street on a jetting run  ;D ;D

  Genuine Hella tail light would be nice.
 
  I have seen them  for sale  ; for  105 GPB  ( approx. $175 AUD  )   :o   ....no thanks .

    $9.00 trailer job will do   ( I fitted a   bayonet  style globe &  socket  inside )
 
   
 
   Some hand guards to be fitted up  & ready to ride  ;D
  Regards ,
                 Steve
