Im a bit worried about the mention of a bikini fairing, but otherwise it looks ok and you should be riding this summer i would hope. Can make it yours or more original later etc as you please.
I always think the aftermarket headlight brackets stand the headlight out too much compared to OEMs, but know the OEMs are not easy to find these days. :/

Looks great, few little tweaks but nice. Did you get receipts for the engine build? Also is the engine number stamped on a ribbed section or is it flat?

I will look into the cable tie around the clutch cable as I didn't notice it , thanks for pointing it out.
Headlamp brackets, it is coming with the originals.
Bikini fairing, just the lower part.
Engine number is stamped on a ribbed section.
Lots of receipts and engine rebuild guaranteed by Spa Motorcycles.
There is also some light cracks on the section behind the seat where the grab rail attaches.

Brilliant the original bar cable ties are still available, the headlamp brackets are v collectible now so that’s good the bikini fairing bracket if it’s an after market one is a complete b*****d to fit, see my recent posts.
Looks like a nice decent honest bike. Now all you need is some armoured jeans, a Simpson bandit and a paddock jacket and you’re good to go 😁👍

Looks a nice example, kick start needs moving round a bit, not sure if it's able to hit the panel there? The matching numbers on the casings is probably meant, that they are a matching pair (if you didn't know, etched with a unique scrawl, that no one knows what it means)  |

Looks a nice bike mate ! The cable tie on the clutch cable will be to stop it rubbing on the clock cover and wearing a groove in it, you should be able to reposition the cable slightly to achieve enough clearance..

out of interest has it been converted to have a UK steering lock on the igntion switch (the iggy decal makes it look like it). German bikes had headstock lock

Really nice bike and im sure it sounds awesome. With reference to the engine cases. Im guessing someone has had pair of cases that match each other ie. paired, but the serial number does not match the bike.

well done on getting one. front master cylinder looks like its off something else too so you may want to look at that. it gets quite addictive looking for and buying things for these little bikes |
