The frame you saw in my garage is destined to look like the first build, half faired, JMC swinger, twin can Akra system, FCRs, Stonking engine. A really nice sleeper but i do miss the turbo so i think forced induction is the route to go again.

the more I look at it in the garage the more I dont wanna chop it so at most I will probably remove fairings and fit wide bars/normal headlight...Tempted to even buy a spare/slightly damaged top fairing to trim for wide bars, Need to find myself a nice seat cowl now too!

That's very tidy that Dan be a shame to take the fairings off but I suppose if you put them to one side you can always restore it in the future if you change ya mind

thats the plan! dont want to alter the subframe or anything...although blacked out frame and braced swingarm is tempting! main goal is getting it running n reliable first!

Ok time for a huge update! beginning of december the bike stopped starting. It would turn over but wouldnt fire up turns out coils had died so put new coils on it, still wouldnt start... so with thanks to Yamirider we replaced the entire wiring loom new plugs etc the works...it then fired up! so since iv stripped it to sort out final few wiring jobs, put the wide bars on and connected cables etc, installed and bled new brake lines too and iv cleaned the carbs so now it idles as it didnt before but have yet to road test it. new motobatt gel battery and will hopefully be putting it back together soon. plugs seem to be fouling within a week for some reason though just idling and revving it up and warming it in garage. the stage3 dynojet must be rich top end too running 160 mains as thats what it came with. Forgot to photo along the way so only have these two to go off... if all goes to plan all that is left to do is order new headlights, a nice set of 5" WIPAC driving lamps and make mounts etc and im praying to god this bike is then reliable because its starting to piss me off recently!
