The frame is the one thing I cant make my mind up, its a bit rough in bits and needs re powder coaitng. BUT what colour???????? i quite like the white but i also like the gunmetal grey shiny stuff.. For this summer its staying as is.. I might doe the seat blue to match the front mudguard but not sure.. Few bits to finish off, make the back brake work in case i need to get MOT, and the carbs need sorting properly.. few clips and cable attatchemnts as well. then use the thing and see how it goes... But all in all very pleased with the way its turned out... before ............. after,........ 6 Quote Link to comment

If anything paint the ignition cover blk to match the clutch cover and put a smaller single KC Daylighter headlight on it with a yellow cover 2 Quote Link to comment
