    Haven't smacked myself in the face yet. But there is still time. LOL

          Becoming a roller is always a major step.
          Looks great!

            Thanks Steve, (and thanks Dave) you know the tide is turning when you're finally bolting things together rather than taking stuff apart.

              That's looking great!

              But, I spy, the front right rotor is actually meant for left hand side, isn't it?

                She arrived fitted with two left hand discs. Can't see ’em when you're riding.

                    Still got the engine and bodywork to sort out. I'm debating whether to split the cases. This kitty has suffered a lot of abuse so I might need to eyeball it's guts to be sure there is nothing untoward internally. I'll drop the sump plate and see what I can deduce regarding shift forks, that sort of thing.

                        Better safe than sorry, I reckon.

                                Painted a few bits and pieces. Rebuilt the rear master cylinder, waiting for the caliper piston kit... Covid delays...



                                Painted the bracket and the cover, tested and replaced blown bulbs. Small ding on the bezel, but I can live with that. She's a road bike not a show pony.




                                The tank was 'splayed out' about 1cm compared to a dented but straight tank that I have, and shows some minor deformation in the frame backbone tunnel. So I wrapped a tie down around the tank and squeezed it in close to the width of the straight tank. I'll panel and paint after the engine has been sorted.
