Wow looking forward to seeing the Yamaha. I have ridden one and they are a bit quick. I REGRET selling my BSA they are so reliable I had side car did the shopping ect… great bike. Race engine what awaits us….
Well done! As you’re planning ‘to do more on the C12 in the future’ that broken bracket on the rear mudguard kind of screams for attention! Is there a steel ball in the clutch pushrod? I think there should be, start, middle or end… somewhere. Good to see it going and moving at last. Of the making of projects, there is no end (as someone once, nearly, said). Right, that’s got the comment algorithm going for you! ATB, Les
So is the car better to work on? I too make my own parts for pre owned bikes and feel for you, l have heard that freezing rubber before working with it helps but not tried it. Take comfort in that lambretta stuff always needs modification, thankyou for sharing with us. Alex

you are right Les... that bracket does scream out a bit doesn't it! I'll go on some longer rides and see what bubbles to the top of the list!

I met confess, the car has been 'more fun' to work on, but it's a close run thing! Good shout about freezing the rubber!
