She looks lovely Andi, very clean, credit to you buddy
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

Cheers barmy, working my way round the bike getting it how I want and giving her a good clean. Ade rode it all year round and whilst it was looked after it needed a damn good fettle.
Got to build wheels up with new bearings, get tyres fitted and put back, then gonna decide if I am going black.

Noooooo  :shocked:................I think red with the black is a lovely combination Andi - and a bit more unique as well.

LOL, i do like the black and red, and as the seats got red lettering and flames, i would probably need to re-trim, but the tank has a couple of small dings that  tbh are bugging me.
:whatever: well just fitted new bearings so while iam off work today, might nip and get tyres fitted.
i can then get the her out the garage and admire all my hard work, and take some pics.

50% right :clapping: gear rod is ok, it is the torque arm. 2nd one isnt so easy to spot :boogie2:

the clue is,,,,,,,,,,hang on, without this, it just flaps about,,,,,,,,, and you need it holding up.

Lovely use of colours Riz,
I know the pull of Black is strong but she 's already looking good!

Must admit the black and red really do go with the gold wheels. I am not gonna get her painted right now.partly because I can't make up my mind. And I've spent a few quid on her over the winter plus with not having a bike for a few years I've had to kit out both me and the missus.
Also my old defender has been feeling left out and decided she needed a new exhaust and new tyres.
And I've managed a couple of rides as my shift pattern has allowed me to get out, might even go for a blast this afternoon.
