Cheers Mick. Coming from a guy with the trickest looking TT on the track - I'll take that compliment!

I am thinking Pre-90's for the Nat's now!   ;D

Couldn't believe it.... it actually idled straight off the start. Very satisfying.

Cheers guys... yes I love the way it looks. :)  free rides for the next hour.... :P

LOL Hugo....  yeah I know... I was blue/black with bruises the last time I chased Carl Blecher's CR500 up all the Lakes' uphills   ...

The backgrounds were by ebay seller motosportservices, or something like that (UK Seller). They do special orders with the numbers integrated into it.

Hardo,

Nice resto buddy. Can you tell me where did you get the blue plastics from? They give the bike a really nice finish. Well Done.

Gibo.

Here it is guys... all finished.

Took this pic at the RD 1 HEAVEN NSW inter-club meeting with NDMCC Pre-90 club Last month.

Came up alright. Just need to sort out the jetting. It's a bit fluffy ...
