Image Hi this is my 350 that i have just refurbed over the last few years, its had new everything exept in the engine dept apart from mending the sprag clutch that slipped and would not turn the engine when cold and only just when warm, i just cleaned it up shortened the spring and so far so good !!. its had new clutch gasket gear and kickstart and crank seal, and a new cam belt thats it for the engine, the rest has just had paint (not correct MOD colours but i like it ) its had all new bearings in the wheels, swing arm, steering, new headlight lense, new fork springs and oil, full stainless exhaust system made by myself and topped with a "White Bros" can, similar to supertrap, Sounds great , mellow and thumpy, :D brake shoes front and rear, Battery and i am just testing out a "Ram AIR" air filter which i have been meaning to attempt for a few years, it fits neatly in the space where the original air box sat just resited the circuit breakers and brake rez .i have only been a short ride on her so far as i got to get mot and tax but seems to run great ,,, time will tell but the air filter seems to be doing the job starts first kick hot or cold , after i have run her a few weeks i will take some pics of the filter as i think its loads better and neater and no i wont be fording the river Ganges anytime so no need to worry about getting water in the engine. Bye for now Nige at last ready for winter ! Image

Be nice if the pictures were sized correctly and orientated the correct way.

Looking at the condition of that one it should fetch the couple of hundred quid a new forum member is offering for a project.
:D :D

Fettling these bikes is nearly as much fun as riding them!

It's called humour... A reflection of the nice job you have done of the bike.

There is another thread running with a new poster wanting to pick up an MT for a hundred quid but would go to a couple of hundred quid for a runner...... :lol:
