I did agonise of the choice of boots for it. Either classic square profile or the Twinduro style I settled for. I think they give it a little bit more chunky look that suits the bike better.

I agree, the Twinduros seem appropriate. Can't wait to see the finished engine. I wonder if Minter show it all apart on his bench like he does with the 4 stroke lumps?

He is under threat of death to ensure he takes copious pictures of it in rebuild. I keep a photo archive of every MT that I rebuild and this Can Am takes the rebuilds to 15 now!! Sad I know, no life!!

Nice one. I wish I had pictures of some of the bikes that have passed through my hands over the years.

That looks really nice.
I wanted to do that to mine but never got around to it, and finally sold on to a member on here now.
