Only been on the road for 6 months after complete re-build with all new panels and engine...now its in bits again.. :D
Never been really happy with the look as it was...powder coated (very dull and lifeless) firstly gauliosis graphics then changed to A F RAYSPEED S type graphics now it will be revamped again.

It will be the same colour (RAL 5002) but sprayed with pinstripes and a Von Dutch theme and hopefully somewhere the trade mark 46 number.. :D work to be carried out by Nooch when I get the rest of the cash together...and the engine will have a tinker as well.. top end stage 4 Mr Brady style a proper crown wheel will be fitted prob MBD, nylon chain guard, Gone back to the original Indian headset filed and smoothed to be close to Italian look and the internals re-worked with metal wheels and the slop taken out with new chrome gearchange and throttle housing with spanish doglegs all filed and dry fitted, new R1 ready to fit and new seat bought off a mate who had a change of plans and never used it so got it cheap as I was due to order one from jase frost..sorry about that jase..

£13.70 A pair lynx levers, did need a bit of fettle but seem nice quality..bar ends are playlife grips, bar end enclosed and inset inside the grip not fixed..Im a bit unsure whether they will stay in for long but we shall see..to be honest there really set in there..the bar end is rebated and the grip is moulded around it, I had a good tug.. :shocking: ..at it but couldnt pull it out..OOWWEERR. :shock:
