Been busy tucked away in the garage for the last few weeks and the rebuild is coming along nicely.

Had a few challenges, with the wrong parts being on the bike. Added a micro-fiche reader and hundreds of fiches for all types of Japanese bikes to help find the correct parts.

I have sourced parts from all over the world, USA, Australia, Germany and many from the UK.

Will add a few photos over the next few days of the latest stage of the project.

Stripped the seat and had it refurbished by Leighton’s in Birmingham. See for yourself the quality of their work.
