Love it Topman. On a general note I love seeing all the different hybrid builds from standard with period addons to modern running gear to really radical builds like yours. Keep up the good work mate.

Ordered some s/s washers PK of 4mm and 2.5mm these helped with aligning the rear wheel with the sprocket carrier and rear brake hanger also took some pics outside as the weather's been awful lately...next couple of jobs will be order brake lines then bleed them and make some brackets for the tank, tricky job will be attaching the fuel tap as there isn't one thinking of using an R6 type gravity fed. Still can't decide on pipes leaning towards Allspeeds small cans??? 😀👍 www.dropbox.com/sc/05wrw3jbi0clqgu/AABZ0P3FvG0Et6vOMGnCYXsxa

Looking really good, as usual I think a shorter style pipe would suit it too. Lots of different makes to choose from nowadays, so you're spoilt for choice Dusty
