Of course it needs a alternator cover
I wonder black anodised bars ... The option of black forks also but I would need later 600 forks.
The yellow is not the same yellow as the Ducati one.
Closest match was triumph racing yellow

Bike looks like new it was In such a state it really upset me and I promissed I'd tidy him up. He was a bit scrapheap challenge

A chap Daren did lots of hard work I just ran about with bits , got bits and sourced people to do stuff and again delivered and picked up stuff and ran it back to garage .

Years ago we used to have little bikes to do up.
I would like to one day if I had a garage buddy to tackle a bike again .
Even if it took years I'd like to pull a monster apart!

At one point I had parts all over East ANglia
I spent most evening and weekend collecting bits!

Very tidy! I agree he looks like a bee, but I think it works.

Good for you for your persistence in rescuing an unloved little bike and turning it into something to be proud of.

By jove, I think I like it, as all transformer fans will know, Bumble Bee has to be the name. Also the rack is a good thing, practicality an all.

Arhh a yellow viffa!
But there had a be a quirky touch in him so he has the very very fine metal flake which only shows now and then.

Just need to get him set up now as he's a bit wheezy
I stupidly forgot to get my headlight housing done.

Also it was nice to be able to trust someone with him.
We have had a bit of a journey some not been great .
I made some big sacrifices to get him done
