Welcome aboard! That's a great looking bike! Ed

its freezing outside now ,that was a great day for pictures,been following your build on the csr1000 should be a belter when its finished ,i will be leaving mine standerd because its in too nice a condition to alter good fortune with your build mate

there is one thing i do like about these old bikes there alot easier to work on than the modern stuff out there

Once you get all the plastic off, whatcha got? :whistle:

Your CSR is looking a lot shinier than my KZP. I run mine in all weathers and the gritters have taken their toll a bit on my brightwork this year. I also removed the Air Vacuum Switch and blanked off the ports. Mine was seized & it was £115 for a new one (which was only fitted due to Californian omissions laws). No need for it in good old blighty!
You're right about Z-Power. I get some of my bits from there. The rest I tend to get from DKMotorcycles.com in Stoke-on-Trent. If you ever get stuck for anything, give me a shout. I might be able to point you in the right direction.
