Thanks Carbon! And yes I did for about a week!! Not intentional, but I kinda couldn't get the clutch done when I wanted to, but I don't think it's a bad thing!
yes Anlaf, thanks for the ask, but I did!
I don't quite know where you mean.
After seeing Peanut's vid, I think I should be OK with the kick starter,but thanks for the heads up!
I think its a bit of black paint
I put my clutch in before the kickstart shaft assembly . I think I would have knocked it out had I put the clutch in second.
That's exactly why I left it until last. Good to see you have managed it, so I should be OK!

LOOL!! I thought to myself, he's putting it in the wrong side!! But then I realised, it's upside down!

Thanks Carbon! I had the day off today, but I did my bike test instead, and passed!
Party tonight, because we out celebrating my 40th and now my bike licence too!
Hangover permitting, I will do some more tomorrow.
Not sure what the transwarp thing is you talking about, or are you just pulling my leg?!

That made me laugh! Your head must hurt after that!
No chance in starting the engine up, I have no electronics!!!!!
Still need the engine bolts to show up in the post too, was kind of hoping they'd show up today........

All right happy 40th Mate :cheers
Man I cant believe You didn't install that.
Oh I'm such a child
A transwarp conduit, also known as a transwarp corridor, was an artificially-created energy conduit through a realm of subspace known as transwarp space. They were utilized by the Borg to cover great distances in a relatively short period of time. Accessed via tachyon pulses of alternating frequencies, the conduits contained a matter stream in which a vessel could reach velocities at least twenty times greater than the maximum warp speed of a Galaxy-class starship, in a process Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge described as "like falling into a fast-moving river and being swept away by the current

Yeah I think I did! Well, I didn't take it out or saw it in a box, so I ASSUME it's in there!!
Thanks for the birthday wishes!

If you look closely beneath the anterior dorfelnuken gascolator you'll see a small blue box labeled 'police call box'. They use TARDIS technology over there...

What's a conduit?
Hmmm!
Enjoy your evening out, Airwolfie, and we await the first sounds as the bike sparks into life once more.

Dang, you found my house.............
Thanks Anlaf! Going to be a while before that happens, but I'm hoping pretty soon! Quite keen to see if all this effort has been worth it!
Nice bit of trivia early in the morning!

Good Day Airwolfie, You old Buck
It's all down hill from here.
In a couple more year I get to tell that to my oldest son.
When he was 20 I asked he how does it feel not to be as smart as he was yesterday?
He asked what do you mean? I say I just wanted to know how it felt not to know everything anymore now that he's not a teenager.
Oh the teen years I'll be having teen grandchildren soon.

Well, the cover is on, the kickstarter works, the PMA is in, and I put all the gubbins on the handle bars, and added the headlight on for a mockup!
staring to look like a motorcycle now!!!
Not too sure about those mirrors now, I don't know if I like them or not. Any comments on them guys??

Starting to look like a SERIOUSLY CLASSIC motorcycle!
Not sure, maybe it's from the confined shop. Try a pic in a LARGE/OPEN area.
Or, maybe NonClow could talk you into a rear view camera...

Airwolfie, nice clean build. I must have missed it, but where did you get the PMA? I got a Hugh's - I'd love to keep supporting him, but those import duties are ridiculous (I just paid £27 extra import charges on some UNI filters).
