Hello Fred no I didn't put a grease nipple on the frame, i'm not going to do that many miles on it, summer ride only, so it's not going to be a major service issue. I'm going to look into a master cylinder upgrade but the brakes are adequate at the moment. Cheers. Simon.

Hello Fred, Thanks for the compliment. I've got a mudguard (Xmas Present) to fit as soon as the weather gets better. I put tapered head bearings in and replaced the lines with braided stainless steel during the resto. I like the sound of the master cylinder upgrade, can you give me more info...

Thanks Robin.:D

I've not been on for three years. Bikes finished, MOT'ed taxed and insured. just some cosmetics to finish. It has been an emotional rollercoaster this restoration. It has been close to being sold several times. I stuck with it though and love riding it. Before and after pics.

Count Me in. Thanks.

Enter me for the draw. Thanks

Thanks Leo that is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me what the large bolt is for near the neutral switch on the crankcase and where I could get a replacement. Cheers. Simon

Hello Jay, they have put it together to make it look better than it is. Got some keys cut for it today and had a first tentative look at the engine. It is a right mess. What I can see without taking the engine out is rusted solid valve rockers and valves. Oh well better get stuck in and get it...

Thanks Deadchef. There is someone who does it in the UK, I was thinking more of what is required after fitting a rephased crank, like ignitipn timing, electrics etc.

Thanks I Am Carbon. :-)

Do you know anything about rephasing the crank? I've read a few posts on some forums and I like the sound of it but don't know where to start with doing it.

I don't know yet. I like all styles of customisation but I am drawn to flat tracker, cafe racer or just restore it as it is for practicality. I've looked at your pics and I like what your doing to yours. What do you think?

Hello Paul, I live about a mile from J28 M1.

Hello everyone. Just bought myself a project bike so I will be asking for loads of help and advice with it. I've wanted one of these for a long time and I won this one on ebay. It wants a lot of work but it means I can do what I want to it.:)
