Just couldn't resist it any longer - and although she's not quite finished - I thought I'd just try to kick her over....she's not been fired up for the best part of 18 months while she's been in pieces....lots of choke - bit of throttle - found TDC - big swing - and suddenly lots of noise and beautiful exhaust fumes blasting all over the tomato plants in the conservatory

- that brought the wife running

- she didn't look as happy as me but i don't care today

i'm let to believe exhaust fumes are great for tomato plants ,it gives them an aquired taste

great build so far.

Excellent news Nick. At least it was not in the lounge as seen recently.

I think the reason I've stalled with this project is that she looks so beautiful and shiney in my conservatory that I couldn't bring myself to get through the final hurdles of MOT and registration cos then I know I'll have to go and get her dirty

But the sun was shining today, and I thought bugger it.... A little later, and cunningly disguised as a 350

, I was grinning my way around some lovely twisty country lanes in order to give her a road test and fine tune the carb before the MOT...
A pair of fresh distanzia's are now on the way, and then I'm gonna bite the bullet, get her tested, and use her as my main bike

I'm still grinning....

I used to cunningly disguise my Landrovers that way. They were all green and looked similar and even the chassis plates were only screwed on
