On with the rebuild

Just to give you a quick update, I have been working on getting the rolling chassis to a point that I am happy with. A few jobs I have done include, powdercoat the frame as the previous finish was terrible, change headstock bearings as one was cracked, modify subframe, fit captive wheel spacers, re-route brakelines, change brake reservoir pipes, make pairs blanking plate, repair cracked fairing and modify the steering damper mount. Most of these jobs are not something I should have had to do but there you go.
I am now just waiting to get the engine back from Roger at RMKD, once I have that I can crack on with fitting the motor, sorting the wiring loom, airbox and duct, exhaust and radiator. Onwards and upwards.
