I was thinking The Stigs illigitimate offspring, or perhaps one of his clones that didn't come out quite as expected.

I love this build Gary.

Congrats on getting married by the way

I love the simplicity of colours, the black, the white & the shiny.

Personally I would paint the rear caliper & torque arm black too but thats just me, or maybe strip the torque arm & polish that, with a gloss black rear caliper

Anyway, it is looking good fella

Hi,had to get some more powdercoating done, so took spring out of hagon, and got it done yellow, i know it's not swedish, but it looks so much better than red. The paintwork is going to be , the classic black and green, with a twist, so it will look good in yellow. Going to fit a single seat as well. Just bought a pw80 for 200 quid, for my two year old, so have some time to restore that. Got married recently, and my best man gave me a ty250 , which as been in his shed for years 'top man. Start restoring that when the kr1s is finished. Will post some pictures when i go and collect it.

looking better and better gary,.

i have your bolts back from being electroplated, all shiny so will look
good on the bike, as i know you like shiny

pick um up when you like

Hi,

Over Christmas fitted my brake calipers & new brake hoses. Also fitted chain & sprockets.

What do you think of the chain guard that came with the bike??

Looking good, if your after a single seat i have one made by Davy that i've decided not to fit as now going back to standard. Not painted yet but see pics

I am not keen on the chain guard Gary and think it would look better without one to be honest.

yep, its horrible gary. but you already know that
see you Tuesday evening [don't worry about bringing your road tailpiece and side panels, ] I have found some here to use as a template to cut out your race one.

it looks a bit too much like Mecano (the chain guard)

congratulations gary ,like howie i realy like black n shiny ,it`s ace doing projects with your children,1 tip tho keep the grass cut short ,its easier to find the socket set guns and harris tank rubber bracelets ect

after rebuilding my old srad 600 race bike i loaded it into my van for a nice shake down test at caddy and water poured out the end can as i pushed her up the ramp , i took it off and the whole pipe was full of soapy water and lego men . i keep a closer eye on the monsters now when they are helping me

hi,at last managed to fit my new exhausts, in the progress of making some brackets, while am waiting for the paintwork to come back from kas.

Jesus H general jumping Jackson christ, that is shiny.

I like them there spannies

What you doing about a chain guard Gary? Keeping the one in the earlier pic? Or got hold of an original?

Can't wait to see the fairings.

Hi , have decided to ditch the chain guard through other forum members advice. Because I'm going to run a single seat will be ditching the rear pegs does it still need a chain guard to get through a Mot??
