Quick update.

Rear shocks are in, tank is in and wiring has begun.

Foolishly for some reason I straightened the tank strap at some point in the past which made fitting really challenging.

Pics to follow

I know, I know it’s been ages.

I’m kind of still plodding away.

Hopefully there’ll be more progress this year

Wiper rack stripped today.

I bought some new wheel boxes from eBay but they’re too long.

Really disappointed

Driveshafts fitted.

Foolishly I fitted a pair of old pot joints before the engine went in.

They’re a challenge to get back out

hard to tell the ride height from that angle, but the poke looks just right  :D

I see, and raising it is going to tend to increase the amount of tyre poke ?

It depends on the current angle of the top arm I suppose
