Looks and sounds great, nice to see it finished. Shame u cant keep it, thanks for the info on 600 bandit back wheel,good to know. I love the front end u got on it ! Hope someone snaps it up off u ,but you will miss it when its gone.
Has to be removed as it doesn't go all the way up due to the braced Metmachex Swingarm...🤷🏻♂️ I just put it on when working on the bike...is only 2 bolts and a spring 😁
It's a shame that all the mods you done to it ruin the chance of making it an historic/MOT exempt and free road tax. That would have been an extra plus point to help with the sale. Lovely looking bike though, I'm sure that it stops and handles better than the original.
Assuming I send pictures of this iteration and not the original, I have all the original parts and could literally bolt them on in under an hour...🤷🏻♂️ There are no restrictions on modifying historic vehicles.
@@tryordiegarage The problem is when you are stopped by a copper who knows a thing or too about older vehicles. I know of a Honda rider who's been reported/investigated due to such a copper noticing that his historic CB1000 has upside down forks and a modern swing arm so it's no longer an 'historic' vehicle so should now have an MOT.
@@steveclark.. The following are considered acceptable (not substantial) changes if they fall into these specific categories: • changes of a type, that can be demonstrated to have been made when vehicles of the type were in production or in general use (within ten years of the end of production); • in respect of axles and running gear changes made to improve efficiency, safety or environmental performance;
@@tryordiegarage It's a bit of a 'can of worms' and open to debate when it comes to what parts etc. Going by what this Hónda owner told me and looking at the mods that you have done, you have zero chance óf passing the historic status. Ultimately the cops, judge, DVLA will decide.

Cheers Stephen, I will definitely regret selling it but hopefully move into something just as good!
Surely you gonna route the front brake hose and clutch cable better??
Nope
🤣🤣🤣🤣@@tryordiegarage
Very nice I hope you get the money you want 4 it . Will you be putting it on eBay. Looking forward to next bike ❤🛠🏍
Thanks Graham, will be on eBay and Facebook and anywhere else I might be able to sell it 😂
Why haven’t you routed the front brake hose and clutch cable inside the panels? It’ll rub the paint in no time like that.
The clutch cable I will but the brake line is not long enough, a new owner can put a longer one on 🤷🏻♂️
Centerstand drag much?
