My New Exhaust

Matt — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 22:59:52 +0000

Today i managed to swoop up an S and S exhaust from eBay. It was a long bidding battle! I’m now very emtpy walleted, but happy i managed to win it.

Sorry to those also bidding!

Now to fit it!

I also managed to win a set of indicators last week

And a couple of months ago i won a new gear change lever and headlight glass. I’m finally making some progress!

Parts that i still need:

Front mudgaurd (white)
Clocks (tacho and speedo) [maybe]
Seat cover
Mirrors

Parts Arrived!

Its been a while since my last post, so this is whats happened.

I ordered my parts and after a month! I finally received them. There was no tank, the side pannels were black (i ordered white) and the front mudguard was silver! I was not that amused, especially after such a long wait. It turns out that the tank, pannels and white mudgaurd are no longer possible to obtain! So, i sent the mudguard back and kept the black side parts.

So, things to do:

Have tank restored
Get frame and swing arm painted
Get the bike back togther!

.
Parts that i still need:

Front mudgaurd (white)
Clocks (tacho and speedo)
Seat cover
Rear indicator
Heat sheild for front of exhaust (downpipe)
English spec headlight glass
Rear shocks
Mirrors

We will get there eventually

Parts Ordered

On saturday (yesterday) i ordered a few parts from CMSNL.com . Ive ordered the side pannels in white, a new steering lock, the headlight rim/ring/ring mounting. I couldn’t get the glass in english spec. Also on the way is a new rubber band to hold my battery in! And a new tank in white. I worked out that it was cheaper to buy a new tank than to have mine restored….+ ill have a spare. Finally, ive ordered a new front mudguard. I enquired and they sent me a new part number.

The site was very easy to use, so ill let you know how i get on with them. So far so good.

Note: I need a new rear left indicator, mirrors, clocks (speedo and tacho), rear shocks, seat cover and headlight glass in english spec.

Hoping to get the indicator, shocks and mirrors from the classic mechanics show coming up. More info on that on the discussion board, under ‘Events’.
