    Cant wait to see this back on the road!

    What plans do you have for the engine? Or is it just staying standard for now?

    Got the engine back from motivation last weekend and its all slowly being rebuilt due to time and awaiting on parts (good old japan). Once its fully built its time to run it in for 500 miles :( take it back of the road for body work and respray then she is fully back on the road.

    Its been a very long project but when she is done i hopefully think she will turn some heads :)

    Well people believe it or not the engine has finally been rebuilt and sitting in the bay :)

    Looking to connect it all up this week and be out as soon as possible to do my 500 mile run in :(

    Will have to order a few bits i.e battery and arch clips but will get it sorted.

    As soon as the run is done then she is of to the body shop for respray an work so if anyone know someone or companies that are decent price then let me know.

    I was wondering if anyone in ramsey has a electronic windy as i have he mounts on a bolted but only as tight as i can get them by hand and would like to give it that extra bit with a gun.
