Thanks for your kind words Stevie but I don't think the results would be as good just cleaning bits with a wire brush in the garage all thanks to Dave for letting me use his workshop  |

Plated a few more bolts before I fit my new grab rails today  not fitted them yet because I did the indicator clamps and yellow passive needs at least 24hrs to dry i did these to give to Ian😀  fitted the newly chromed headlight rim  then my referbed starter album upload and to pass the time while stuff was plating I removed the original brake pads and fitted a set of fast road pads well it is Silver😄🏍  i have these in my blade so they should cope with 20 something hp😉 |

Well fitted grab rails today  then I noticed the seat catches were a bit poor so of they came off  the drab on the handles is ok but the passive yellow not so,so in the tank with the springs and bolts   and while they were doing I took my side stand off and blasted and painted it  and on a damp cold day unneed ab it of heat to aid the drying process and what better than a big blow torch😀   |
