Good on you for doing it. Its much easier to put back together. Seems funny I started to take mine apart exactly one year ago last Sunday. I miss not doing things in the evenings. Be careful of that little mini. Looks a good one.

Keep posting progress for us to enjoy.

Coming together nicely Pomp, well done mate.
I had a trip to the powdercoaters yesterday, to have a look at some of their work.
All being well, i should have some pics up of my re-build within the next few weeks.

Nice one,

Looking good - well done. Just the though of dismantling a bike & rebuilding it from scratch gives me cold sweats! Maybe I should do some evening classes in motorcycle mechanics!
