Did someone say new paint?

Yes, my panel van is the same make as the iconic Mad Max Interceptor. My van being an XB Falcon 500, 1976 vintage. No supercharged 351 Cleveland though she does have a 4 speed manual floor changed gearbox and black bucket seats, GS/GT dash with full instrumentation and a GS/GT steering wheel...

More?....well ok but they're cars...

Ride the Yammy down as it suits the era. A few pix

Thanks Jim, I timed it to the punchmark for now. Bike runs fine, hard to start off the kicker, but the electric start gets it going. I probably need to make a positive piston stop and verify that I've found exact TDC

On the rotor front, dunno if I've said this so here goes. I had my rotor done locally and a good job was done . But I've since noticed when going to time the spark that the timing mark is gone! Well ...or so I thought, after hooking up a timing light I saw a glimpse of it a long way from where...

Yamaha is still working good and charging ,yes. Thanks everyone👍🙂 Have electrical problems with the 2006 Victory now. And being that it's got an ECU and fuel injection its way more challenging to fix. There's a lot to be said for old school motorbikes when it comes to finding faults. Though...

Doing any with the main print on the front? I always wear at least a vest. Never see the backs of my shirts.

Ok thanks...think I've got it.. Wont dive into it straight away but as I'm riding the Victory Cross Country down to Brunswick Heads, back later this afternoon, also the new intake boot for my other Victory Kingpin is due to arrive today, I've clued my neighbours in on both sides to keep an eye...
