Steve, good video, keep them coming. You may know that the centre stand is often seized and now would be a good time to take it off and clean and grease the pivot. Some have fitted a grease nipple and I regret that I did not when I had mine stripped. I got my frame powder coated and they did a good job for £100. However, you must mask of the headstock and use sacrificial bolts to protect threaded holes, or run a tap down them after coating. Protect or remove the VIN plate. The big engine bolt at the rear is also the earth mount for the battery so you will need to expose bare metal on the frame for the earth wire. I replaced the front and smaller engine bolts with stainless. Not sure if you can get the large bolt at the rear because I did not need to. My rear mudguard was corroded so I bought a new one off eBay for £30. Lastly, for now, I found the swing arm corroded on the offside, underside and this is quite common. I got mine plated and welded up so again now is a good time to check. I have some spare parts so shout up if you need anything. Dennis
