Nice paintjob - Lovely colour.
Your scooter looks like mine when it arrived. The Indians coated it in grease to ship it and all the paint is stained. Lousy paintjob anyway! It won't start at the moment. I need some help to get it going again, then the plan is to getting it MOTd, registered, then start to restore it.

My 76' Indian GP Restored by me..!
Here are some more photos of my scoot. Finished off fitting her new exhaust today, after carrying out some repairs. The exhaust studs had vibrated out and the threads had stripped.. I ended up fitting 8mm studs instead of the normal 7 mm. I had to drill out the exhaust flange bolt holes just a tad to make fitting a little easier. The exhaust itself is a Scootrs pipe and was bought from Resurrection Scooters in Burton on Trent for just a tad over £100. Performance wise... Much better with this pipe fitted. Tons more mid range power and pulls like a train.

Looks very nice mate....
You should be proud of what you've done, you have a cracking looking paint job.
What engine have you put in 'er?
Here's my '79 from the same source....
You might find that bolt on Front Dampers (get the brackets from CamLam) will improve the front end handling. Made a huge difference to mine....
