so done a little more.....

few bits i didnt like so i did again just to be sure!

rear hoop looked odd so i cut that off and raked it back more


left all the brackets and clips on thinking i could put sides back on and it'd be ok - oh how wrong we were! LOL

so the lot got stripped and a plate for the electrickery bits got welded in along with some spacers ti lift the tank at the rear


not painted yet as im sure it'll get scratched chopping and changing my mind on where stuff goes now!

swapped front tyre for a 130 70 which is slightly bigger than the rear - might swap at a later date for a 120/70 but who knows! see how she rides

this is where im at tonight..........


what ya think

does look better the more you add to it.............

started making a ply base for the seat and it slowly dawned on me i could just use the original and cut it down - so i did just that! then cut the basic shape out of the seat foam which itself comes out all funny shapes as it moves around a lot when cutting with the kit-chen knife! (no need to tell her indoors fellas!) then set about shaping it with a grinder fitted with a grinding disk with surprising results! even though i looked like some kind of leaper with all the foam dust stuck to me LOL 


and tonight after fitting a set of glow plugs to her indoors touran i chopped the old rear mudguard down to suit and found an old front one ive cut up too! going to make some standoffs for that......

few little bits done again last week or maybe the week before that?!

bracket for the headlight - oh i got a headlight! no side light tho all seem to be like this now so will have to wire it to the ignition switch... made some little plates up to mount the indicators to the bottom yolk pinch bolts


fitted me light and indicators to the rear guard but dont like them where they sit! trial and error i spose! stop and tails going further back and im going to make some more plates up so i can bolt the indicators behind the shocks 


and found some bar to space off the front guard


and put exhaust back on for aesthetics
