And today after I got her WOF and registration. Now she's all road legal. I hated the red paint so I stripped the tank and painted out the plastics & fender matt black. After See Nessism's machine I knew mine would never be perfect so I'm ok with messing with it a bit. I'll paint the tank when I can afford it but for now this is it. I need to get used to riding it. It has so much power compared to the old 305, I really have to be careful to not get busted for speeding...

Interesting that you have a voltmeter. I can see that being useful! What year is your bike? 1980?

Yep 80, it just tells me my charging system is all good. It sits at 14v when it's running.

Elbow grease is right. I did it with the engine in place too. It's not immaculate but a huge improvement. What amazes me is despite how rough it looked on the outside it runs beautifully! I checked the valve clearances, all within spec, if it ain't broke... She purrs like a kitten!JR wrote: Looks great. That engine was pretty rough looking. Must have taken a lot of elbow grease. Well done
