Morning one and all,

Well its 7.00am in the middle of Blighty n I've been awake since 5.00!!!!!!!!!!!

Just prepping to go over to a mates n spend a day in the workshop.

Todays list.............. 1/ make new cans and link pipes
                              2/ balance carbs
                             3/ mount home made B.M style ally pannier
                              4/ fit new front discs n brake lines.

Obviously some of this won't get done today but I like to get me teeth into something.
Have a massive list of jobs.
Top yoke conversion is next but I'm finding so much conflicting info.........I'll just keep reading til something resonates.

Well guys n gals best get me stuff together n head on down the M1............at least i'll be able to stretch the old girls legs without any cages about.

Have fun, be safe

Thems my sentiments entirely............always ran matt blackers n spent time on the mechanicals n serviceables.
I don't look after paint or polish so whats the point in lashing out good cash for it??!!
Low black dirty n minimal......as long as it goes, slows n flows  :drinks:
