Thanks all :D
When I got it although low mileage it had spent some of it's life in a damp environment and had some corrosion, not too bad but it stood out against the rest of the bikes nice finish, Also had to sort out the previous owners mechanics little rock ups. It's taken a while as I've had to concentrate on work first and sometimes I can't find the enthusiasm to work on my bike after working on bikes all day.

It's like a mechanics car, a carpenter's house and a developers web site, you just don't want to work on your own stuff at the end of the day.

I think the bike looks fantastic! I am a huge fan of the yellow.
