Thanx guys. Mechanic apparently fixed all the foibles today, tomorrow i will check it out and hear it run. Every person's opinions and tastes are different, i personally don't like the headlight surround plastics supporting the front fender. I will also remove the pretend rad shrouds/tank plastics too. The tank is steel, i'll be looking to change the h/bars immediately for alloy Renthal type copies and some Thai copy of an aftermarket silencer (about $45 ish). Oh yeah, price to ride it out of the shop; $1246.00 !!
What i'd dearly like to do eventually (after a year or two and some proper mileage) is make the thing look like it was made in the 70's, ie a Honda TL/SL/XL 185 or similar. Round headlight, aluminium mudguards, different thin long tank, solo seat and even twin rear shocks. All doable out here. Anybody knows where i can buy 15-16" long dual rear shocks?
Mike.
