Well, minivin and I had a bit of a go at the MT today :!: Cambelt done, tank partial respray on the go, speedo cable replaced and front panniers all have new straps fitted :D New kickstart rubber fitted and various other things done.

Tomorrow I'm going to finish the tank and have a go at the front tyre and calpiers! A new pair of keys and a front pannier lock, and cambelt cover o ring are on order now as well.

A couple of pictures from today:

Update:
Well, best laid plans and all that. I'm going to stop giving myself targets any more, I'm just going to say I'll spend a couple of hours on the bike today :D One caliper had to have the bolts drilled out that hold it together :cry: I was a little hung over, and by the time I'd had a fry up down the road and went shopping, the day sort of faded away :roll: I did get the tank finished though ;)

More work to come in the week ahead. Here are a couple of pictures from today:

Update:
Calipers re-built, and exhaust clamps bead blasted at work and sprayed heat resistant black :D
Exhaust is in pretty good condition, with a little surface rust, so I passed it to a good friend of mine for shot blasting and spraying black ;)

Two pictures from today:

More to come soon, and I'm hoping to have it on the road before Christmas :!:

Well, it's been slow, the weather hasn't helped seeing as I have to work outside :cry:
I managed to change the front tyre, clean the carb ready for the mod, and fit the front calpier, all bled :)
The rear indicators have been spun 180 degrees so they don't look so sad :roll:
