I brought her 3 years ago as a scruffy, but mecanically ok bike, 20,000km on the clock with old MOT's etc.

I used her for a year, then thought I would start to make a few mods ovher over the winter. Unfortunately I started work on her, then life went a bit mental and she sat in the garage for a couple of years before I managed to restart work on her a few months ago.

Today she went for her MOT and passed so finally i can get back to riding her.

Thanks, to be honest the photos make it look a lot better then it is, the fairings are slowly crumbling, just the ride to and from the MOT centre gave me a big smile.

So time to start making it look nice.

I have a good solid tank for painting, the paint is shot but structually perfect.
