P_Star Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Ok, figured it was time for me to stop trying not to look at the bits of this thing strewn across the garage... so although I need to get the Lada sorted first I will attempt to spend some time on the Jawa as well... and to those ends... I bought some bits lol... hopefully everything I need to get it back together... hopefully boring pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
