Will get some pics up tommorow for those that are interested but what I thought was going to be a bit of cleaning ended up in me completely striping the back end off the bike and using a fair amount of gunk as it was a complete mess under it all . Feel high as a kite from the fumes .
Looks like it's turning into abit more of I project than I had first planned.

you never know, you might find a bargin set on ebay. I saw a bargin set of showa forks (i think they were showa and not ohlins) go for real cheap monies a few weeks back.

I picked up a NC21 engine/frame/carbs and lots of other bits for £100 because it had been worded diff to most other common to find stuff.
