Since she seized a month or so ago, I've cut things off and bolted things on.
Oh, fitted a new barrel & piston, stator, ignition....
She's not too bad for a weekly commuter from IOW to Greater London.
No show winner I but I like her.

The footpegs are whats commonly known as sundance. Get grips and pegs in that design.
heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it does fail, hit them with it!!!

Rear sets are from Beedspeed. Only need to use half of what they send you.
Cut and weld an upright to the rear outriggers, then drill and fit the rearsets.
Easy.

Yes Toddy, I know Gary, Rosy and a few others. Nice lads.
I don't tend to ride with any of the clubs as I spend most of my time on the Big Rock.
In fact, I meet up with the Lost Souls SC in Woking more than the Heart and Souls, here......
