The first picture looks like mine, only mines on the road.... With lots of rust.... Does look good though, you should be proud.

Hey Kipper where do you live? I`m in Scotland and we don`t really get a summer! do you? or are you just optimistic?
Looks good though and if you are out enjoying it in the sunshine I will be envious.

Ian I’m also in Glasgow And summer was last Monday and lasted the full day Was the bank holiday you must have missed it I'm in Kent so guess we get a little more sun than you. Not that you'd know it today cos once again it's p!ssing down. I've had about 40 minutes out on it since getting it finished, wasn't allowed out for bank holiday, had to do my chores ;-) so praying for sun sometime soon. Hope you get some fine weather too mate. Ride safe fella.
