going to be road legal(again).....its been off the road for 9 years whilst the previous owner stripped it and started buying new bits...he just never got round to rebuilding it and lost interest.....

Looking good chap

Managed to get mine looking more like today and it certainly gives you incentive once it starts coming together. A little bodywork makes a hell of a lot of difference





It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

Looking good.

There is only one thing i can say that i don't like. This is the collector at your exhaust.

But i shouldn't be speaking as i don't build anything anymore.

are you going to put padding in the seat? personally i can't see that seat being anything but uncomfortable, but every man to his own and all that.

May I ask why the image of your rear right wheel seems a bit odd?

its because i have no rear dan bar fitted and the adjustable rear trailing arms are not bolted in properly yet...the rear axle is not stabalised...

Looking good, you've been busy, that's a lot of progress in 3 months, only thing I'd say is why the mahoosive battery ( Mr C, Chapman - add lightness).
Why did you stop with the single carb, go for the pair, not that expensive second hand (go for Dellorto's, cheaper than Weber and just as good).
