Well as it was fathers day and don't appear to have any I decided to have a lay in and then ponse about with Monster. Seat cowl lugs all strong and good and ready to have the cowl resprayed asap. I will further try to neaten area up and if necessary make a surround.




Then on to the wire wheel for some bolt restoration and other parts. All coming up well because they were not so corroded and grubby in reality. Washers seem to be the worst culprits.



I managed to fix the broken hanger bolt by drilling out the broken stud and tapping it through m8 and putting a stud in there. I will then try to get our specialist welder BigOz to neatly weld the stud in place before coloured zincing.




I hope to get the engine examination done this week if I can then can seriously get on with the stripping down all the rest of parts inc axles etc and replated in a batch.

Brake lever now straight



The tap on the oil line feed



I welded the plastic on the top left piece of inner mudguard with a soldering iron




Rear plate hanger is cleaned and number plate light removed after cutting nuts off. Found it has an LED bulb in it so a bonus.





Ordered a new rubber cover for this but need to get wires out to feed over. £1.85 from ebay for a 4 way one. Just to make it look right and stop water ingress in the future.
