Got genuine N.O.S plastics, they already have graphics installed. I got one shroud through Bob Tracey's World of Cycles in Pensylvania, the other i had to get from CMSNL in Holland.

If you're stuck i could trace my graphics and send you more detailed photos so you could get some custom made?

Ok cheers dude, thanks for the info I will get some N.O.S plastics myself.

Got a bit more done to the bike today  :-D

Replaced the reeds in the rad valve and installed it along with a new boot and clamps.

Also installed the carb along with new breather hoses, N.O.S throttle assembly and cable. Ditched the stock grip for my preferred renthal medium compound grips - took forever to cut the stocker of the new throttle tube!

Got round to tidying up the wiring, weatherproofing it for some fun in the Scottish mud!

The rear brake assembly also got some attention today.

Piston was seized in the caliper with the bike having sat for so long - for a right pain in the hiney to get out, but a little persuasion with the airline and it was out. In my haste i didn't really take to many photographs of the calliper and master cylinder rebuild - will take more when doing the fronts - with a how to if anyone is interested.

Anyway the calliper was thoroughly cleaned and got a new fluid and dust seals, new piston, new bleed niple, all new rubbers for the carrier sliders, new pad holder pins, anti rattler clip spring and new Vesrah sintered pads.

The master cylinder was stripped and i found the push rod to be severly corroded and was beyond saving. New parts included a new return spring, push rod, seals etc along with a new reservoir  :mrgreen: This lot was all connected up with a Goodridge braided carboline hose with stainless fittings - looks the part........

NOS parts for the back brake rebuild alone cost a fortune - nearly ?250!!!

Hopefully get started on the front tomorrow night after work!

Anyway here's the pics
