Months????????? Once I have my frame back and nothing else is goosed, I've been buying new or newer or good used parts as and when I find something is goosed and stashing it on L'Escargot Shelf

So my Sito Exhaust is ready to rock
My White power Shock is Hanging up coated in a prime anti corrosive Liquid
My Second wheels await a Clean and to be Shod with my Second hand TKC 80's
New Throttle cables Stashed on Shelf
New Choke cables.........."......"...."....
New Rear Brake cable......"......"...."....
New Key Switch ............"......"...."....
New Headlamp..............."......"...."....

Require to progress project to reassembly phase

Parts blasted and coated
Battery
Driveshaft needs 1 UJ replaced
Gearbox needs lever return springs replaced
10 Square feet of space and a decent cheap to run garage heater

and 20 hours of uninterupted time

I have an itch that only a coated frame and cleaned bits will scratch

Guess the wimmen won't be seeing much of me this christmas

I was tryin for "long Live the Airheads" and thought I would see what Babelfish thought it would be !

Translates roughly as "Live a Long Time the Users of Marijuana"

Progress good this morning a dozen screws to get the last of the frame bits off then the spoils can be divvied up for work
 
Bailing wire and string Aidan and a healthy attitude to using bikes intead of polishing them to death.
