got there

Here's my bike as it should have been ridden this summer.
I went out on the road for a couple of hundred meters. Long enough to feel that all's well but not far enough to either check if the speedo's working or to attract any attention.
Running out of money has meant I've missed a load of riding and now it's probably a bit late, so should I start to strip it down to do the next lot of work?


I'm going to bin the fairing and fit the apes. That means rewiring the handlebar controls to run them internally. I've also decided to fit a different rear mudguard. I want to go with a shorter and flatter one with probably a side-mounted number-plate and stop/indicator lights. I'll also buy a front mudguard then decide what paint job I'm going to get.
More money!
