Saddle up ! I'm pleased with the seat. Looks good on the bike too. I should have it ready and running for the MOT by next week.
Can't wait to see the finished bike.

Well I've had it up and down the street a few times and it needs a few tweeks but it's alive !

I like them filters Stu, where did you get them? I'll still be running side panels on mine to save money on relocating the battery but no big horrible air filter

Thanks for the comments boys. Clock/tacho from fleabay too. The tacho input is off the coil switching wire and the amplitude of the pulse is very high. I am going to try and damp it with a capacitor as the needle is a bit jumpy. There's all sorts of little jobs left but for the most part it's done.
