mounting plate gets in the way, i will keep you informed with progress.

Well i thought that i had got most of parts i needed, but due to some
dogy B'sterd they all went missing, i got my money back, but no centre exhaust,
so i bid on another one, was winning, then Ebay pull the plug on it with only 2
hours left, cheers Ebay, have you any idea how long a ten day listing lasts for when you want something, it's more like ten weeks.
So here i am again no centre section of exhaust.

Well i just got myself all ready for finnishing my CV 500 and i go and buy myself another bike, so i have had to put it on hold again, due to my garage needing a reyt good tidy, T140v chop has gone, so i now have to make room for a TR6P 1972 Triumph jigsaw,
you know how it is when you get a good deal every now and again, cant say no.
A bigger garage is what i need, cant thin out my collection cos they are all quite
rareish, perhaps im greedy, but at 51 i think i deserve all i desire.

Well i solved my exhaust problem, i won the auction for the Armstrong system
on E bay last night, third time lucky, as they say "every thing comes to them who wait"
so it's all down to being patient, not one off my strong points genraly.
Happy Arge.

Getting there, slowly but shurly, but mi garage int big enough, or i
have too much stuff, but you helped me there by taking all them CCM bit's
away.
I am still thinking of thining out, my CCM has got to be worth a few bob
and i'm never gonna use it, it just takes up space, £4000.00 if any one's intrested
see you later Cuz.
