I’ve slowly been popping bits n pieces onto my 350 the past couple of days,powder coated forks,top yoke and footrest hangars,fitted up the Renthal street bike bars and fitted one of the pro grips,also put the restored switchgear back on...the paintwork I collected from the paint shop the other day and he’s done a cracking job..unfortunately I’m going at a snails pace as I’m still awaiting the Caliper brackets which I’m still contemplating sending to the anodisers or maybe powdercoat them too🤔....Anyhow I can’t wait to ride it.....oh yeah nearly forgot I’d put the remote master cylinder on as well.

Putting them back together is by far the most rewarding part. Once I start, I don't like to stop!

Will your tail light shine on your number plate that far in ?

Will your tail light shine on your number plate that far in ? In theory yes,but in practice it doesn’t matter as I never ride at night😄

Revamped the rear light again today,didn’t want metal brackets so modified the original mount onto the Busa mudguard that had already given up its life in the previous incarnation,this also still gives me a tool tray area which might be handy.....also chopped down the indicators bar to bring them in tighter,happier with the progress today 😊

You do realise the value/price unchopped ones go for? Yep I do,the best offer I had was £60 for it,a new reproduction part to do the job I wanted was a little more,so not worth the bother for me..besides there are still thousands of these bikes and spares kicking around and this one had already been hacked a bit.
