Picked up my bodywork today, everything will need new chassis tabs but it all fits the ST frame very well, I cut the tank pins down 5mm each and thats perfect, they look to be it he rite place but I won't know till I get my new stem bearings and get the triples on.





And that fuken sexy Retro tail sticker has me rethinking my paint................

Seems like it would get awfully hot - might deform that nice tail piece. Ed

My head stem bearings turned up yesterday and were Fukien wrong!!!!
But I used the top one to hold the stem in place so t cold look at the bike with The bodywork on it.
The tail is I the same spot as my last pick, I think it might be a tad too short...


I reckon this is more betterer.

got a dirt cheap set of bars yesterday, they even fit in with my idea of going for an all alloy front end, no paint on the triples, lower fork legs or calipers and stripped anodising on the fork tubes.
