I’ve still got to get new mirrors. Put the side covers on cam cover and some other small bits. Close up of the seat.

The bike is pretty much done. I just need to swap my good petrol tap over from the 750 to this and see if that will prevent the carbs over flowing. Seat recovered by Ingram upholstery. Can’t say I’m stoked with it but it’s certainly way nicer than it was! Side covers and guard used to be red. The worst colour on these 550s.

I’d be keen to get a date locked in so I can book time off work. -

Has the date been 100% confirmed for next year? Keen but need to book leave and buy a bike! -
@a.craw4dthe top one is mine, doesn’t leave much clearance, would quite like to have it like the sparkly one out the side..
-
Nah definitely not. Wasn’t sure if I should have or not tbh.

That makes total sense. I’ll give that a go cheers @tortron

Got a question about painting plastic guards. Sanded the crusty Matt black off and the weird cream colour under that to the original colour, went below the original colour to the bare plastic in some spots so obviously put some adhesion promoter on. Where the bare parts are there has been some sort of reaction where it looks almost like paint stripper has been put on it but only around the edge of the bare plastic. Does this makes sense? Andy ideas why?

I can’t believe how well it’s actually cleaned up. Good work!

@TimShadboltfan27Id like to but ill have to see how I go. Not sure if I trust it, only ever done 450kms on this thing

It sounds a lot better now the valve shims are done, it sounded like it had a cam chain rattle before. I desperately need to sort a shed. My workshop entrance is way to small to get the big bikes in and out.

I think this ones done 70,000ks, I want to make it the daily. Hopefully I can get that many ks out of it

Minor update. New handlebars and new brake lines. Indicators installed, led bulbs in dash. I put a pressure switch banjo bolt in for the brake light. Genuine Suzuki intake boots and replaced some o-rings and rubber plugs in the carbs. I really really want a 4-1 for this thing and the only one I want is from Cycleworks in welly but that means riding there!

Amazing transformation! Well done.

Milton is not far off really, copious amounts of drink driving and non seatbelt wearers Good score on the van!!!
