You're certainly getting there now Rob, the different colours work well together IMHO

Chris.

Got the front mudguard on as well as the tokico six pots rebuilt and on.

Have the front stay on and speedo. Once the lumpy running is sorted out its basically a process of putting the fairings on and freeing up the rearsets.

I think the six pots look well myself and hopefully they work well when bled.

There was some clearance issues with the new master but sorted now. Had to reroute the brake lines a bit as the switch was being interfered with.




Also sorted out that dam bracket on the mudflap!

That bike is looking spanking

Thanks mate!

Once she has her MOT I'll have to touch up on places but in general she looks clean. I'm happy and it's looking worth the effort

Today she passed her MOT. Really happy. Two advisories. Nothing to be concerned about.

Still running rough at lower revs. Hoping Grainstorm can be the saviour I need.

Battery isn't holding charge so that'd annoying but again hopefully Grainstorm can assist

Still need to get bellypan on.

Have to give Vtrphoenix a shout out once again. The man has been invaluable. A lot of the fellas here have helped me in different ways but be has literally set aside several days just to give me a hand. Been fantastic and had great encouragement from him.

Yeah but Rob now it's finished & VTRPhoenix's work is done he will be expecting some recompense...

Bend over, pass the lube & brace !

I never thought about that!!

Nice work Rob

Chris.

bike looks great, love the colours!

Thanks fellas. As I say she needs a bit more done and definitely paint touch ups on certain places but she is looking a lot better now.

Great looking bike, the dark blue against the satin black frame look very smart (and very up to date too)

Unfortunately she is looking a tad rougher these days. However runs well which is the important thing! Will have to be sorted after the summer. Had enough messing for one year

Today I gave her a wash and fitted thr bellypan which I think sets it off.
Just stickers and slight fettling to go. Probably be a while Before I manage that.

I didn't think I'd be updating this! However thanks to Fabio I have work ahead of me....

Spoken to Roger Ditchfield and this frame is one of less than 10 he personally modified.
Chuffed to bits

Not to mention the ohlins which is in amazing condition. Now really I have almost enough to build another bike but with a baby on the way (yep an actual baby) I probably shouldn't so these are going into my Blue girl.

Fabio is a legend.

Just need to source an engine with the balls for the frame!
