Managed to get a mint Nosecone, that left panel I showed you and a very nice and rare solo seat cowl. I've got some spraying work for you!
Apologies for the thread drift Marcus. You need to get that bike Sprayed in cabin colours asap we may have a photoshoot soon!

After some help , iv managed to strip clean and rebuild one half of a caliper but I can't get the pistons out if the other side. Any tips would be great before I launch it across the garage .

Managed to spare a hour or so , striped and rebuilt the the front callipers, cleaned everything up , new seals and plenty of red rubber grease , a few pics
on both callipers the fluid line was bocked right up, is this a common thing?
finished, the calliper paint is alot darker than it looks in that pic
and just a nice shot of the shock and exhaust
Hopefully i will have the forks and carbs done by the end of the month

Im running 5.5 inch Dymags and have plenty of room running a 160 60 17, Would have thought with 6.0 inch you would defo need one of Ricks sprocket spacers.
