Like the name! Nothing quite like naming your bike to give it additional character! I went for 'Diesel' for the DR, due it being and agricultural beast! (thumbs)

suspenders off and serviced

Just ordered a set of head bearing as they are starting to wear and seeing as the bike is nude at the moment it would be rude not to...

Seat back from the marina and looks good, the guys have put several different types of foam in there to make it a little more comfortable cost a grand total of £25 (thumbs) . Will be bolting things back on soon (thumbs)

Have you put the engine back in yet? I remember when doing mine some years ago, it seemed like it had grown bigger and was impossible to put in without scratching the frame, a lot!. After trying a few things, I used some cut up thick plastic cartons to lay against the paint then held in place with tape.

Best of luck with the rebuild. Any pics of the seat job and general rebuild please? Pictures add a lot to the entertainment factor. (thumbs)
