I’ve also plugged up all the holes i’ve cut in the frame and sorted a bracket to bolt the seat to. Next up is a battery box shifted forwards slightly out of sight :)

Also sorted a list of everything that needs to be done:

-battery box

-clean up welds

-spray frame

-fork seals

-brake seals

-carb rebuild (including rejetting)

-plumb fuel lines

-brake light and wiring

-indicators and wiring

-air filter

-plugs

-oil change

-tyres

-DIY exhaust

Not a massive amount all told :) not for a £50 bike i bought 2 years ago at any rate

Wow. It looks like you’re saving a bike from being turned into a bobber. Thank you!

Haha no worries ;) less of an issue here in the UK, but there’s still enough of them around ;)
