Bits

Had a small windfall and a bit of cash arrived so have bought a new rear sub frame and seat for the bike. Should be with me next week and we can look at starting the changes. The first job is getting the bike set up level and secure so we can get at it with a grinder and welding kit when we get stuck in.

Pictures of it all as soon as it's set up .

Back into it!

Back at it, I have a few parts to get and then it's up to Alien to weld the lugs for the new subframe and plastics along with the new tank mounts we are going to need. This is it, into the last ever bike I will build. Yes,, yes i know I've said it before but this is the last time, this one will have to last.

More as it happens

Exhausting day!

It's been a right toil today, I have no energy and have gotten frustrated once or twice. The manifolds are mocked up and tacked up but I for the life of me could not get one of the tubes at the bottom end to sit right. I gave up in the end and cut it off to look at again tomorrow. No point trying to do a two man job on my own and losing my rag!

I'm using an old stainless manifold For a GS engine I had lying about , I've just chopped it up to suit. It's going to be a two into one with a cherry bomb if I can ever get it right! I'll have another go in a day or so. Beer and roll-up time! :-)
