I guess you right Daniel, 'spose I better ship her over to you, except you might go on one of your daft missions to the north pole again and she don't like the cold.

Put the young one's hamster on the front wheel facing backwards and left him there for a week, you want to see his thighs now, the neighborhood cats give him a wide berth.

Excellent progress! I have not been around much lately, just too many other things going on...!
You can still get that exhaust complete from Cowley. They have a street and racing model if I recall and make them up if not in stock. Quite a fair price too and they are in your neck of the woods as well.

Thanks guys, a way to go yet before I fire her up, you know how it is, always a million little odds and sods that need doing, but it is tempting.....
Still need to reassemble and mount the front foot pegs, get a headlight bulb, get a flasher unit, fill and install the new battery, fabricate a top mounting for the right rear shock and mount it, fabricate fairing brackets, redo and mount the exhaust, and sort out the brakes.
the front brake needs a new reservoir and lever, the rear brake has an issue with the one bleed nipple not closing off and allowing air in, dunno what I am going to do there?
Need to replace the heavy cable from the battery to earth and to the starter solenoid.
Then just give all the nuts and bolts the once over.
And then just pray fuel does not come ****ing out the carbs when I put gas in her.
Hi Andre, ya I know Cowley still make that system, or they did as of three years ago, I gave them a call to see if they would fabricate one for me, as I thought they were long out of production, only to hear that they still make them, and ya good price too, was around R1500 for the whole system as I recall back then, R750 for the headers and R750 for the tail piece.
They are down in Heidelberg, nice 40-45 minute drive from me.
I have the standard tailpiece on mine, but am looking for a competition tailpiece.
The idea was to put a new system on, but sadly can't afford it now, should have bought it back then when I could.
What hacks me off the most is that I can't find my GS1000G side cover emblems.
