Finally finished off the bike.
Couldnt fit in the shift kit in the end as the frame was just way too small - and the bigger frames arent solid steel like they used to be. Id be chasing down a big steel frame for years before i found one suitable.
Probably shouldnt be going over 50 anyway :lol: :twisted:
Just gotta get some fuel and start her up - pics are are on FB. Hope it goes as hard as it looks :twisted:

Vectose helped me get the loom all set up in the GR. ECU is right to go in and apart from that there's not much else I can do until I have money for the engine work.
I fix cars.

      In this case, I'm waiting for a Gen Y so I can fix ours. :lol:
      Hopefully in the coming weeks.

      Still haven't got the bloody towbar yet from the pricks at the work shop.
      Talk about prioritise. 3 damn weeks...
