Me and Chris did get the bike bike running briefly down at his house, but only for a few seconds. Anyway,stuck a new battery on it as the original one was poobar. after a few stabs on the starter she was running like a good in. Not sure how old the petrol is but will empty it out over the weekend and maybe stick some new plugs in. Engine sounds really good with no rattles. Had a quick blast up the car park and she goes well
Going to have to do something about those handlebars. Squashing my hand on the tank
Wound the headlamp down cos it ain't popping up. Wiring looks like it needs attention.lots of botches round the headlamp and down the left side panel.
Well happy.
