Brilliant progress Garry =D>
I have to admit i'm of a similar mind with my bikes, do it yourself & get the buggers on the road
Apart from my Kr1s project, which is driving me mad. As it is turning into a nut & bolt job......grrrrrrrrr
Back on the road - hopefully

Forks done and back in with swapped yoke
Re-built the calipers and gave them a re-spray a few coats of
lacquer and new bolts - managed to get them working without getting brake fluid everywhere
I think its best to just have one project at a time Howie - otherwise
you never seem to get any of them finished

Rear caliper rebuilt - pistons had seized - got them to move eventually by
pushing them back, spray of WD40 and then using the brake lever - since it was having no effect on its own
Will fit the disc when the wheel comes out for a new tyre
Frame spars polished and lacquered
Got some electrics to sort out then fairing repairs
Not sure if a black mudguard might look better - will wait and see when the fairings back on
