One last photo. Belly pan in (with cable ties) and stickers on. Starting to look like a genuine racer now.
Srika - Bled the brakes this morning. Front came up excellent and can't wait to try em out. Found a leak in my rear master cylinder so I fitted the one off the donor... all good. Just need a few little bits and bobs and its done.
The one thing I found was it sounds like the carbs need a tune. Revs up well, but a slow return. Sounds like carbs out of balance or running rich etc. Made me think what jets I need with that exhaust?

Ring gavin Cosway and ask him if he still has 1. The jet sizes recorded (saves me pulling mine out of the carbs to find it. and 2. Any of his special needles to suit said Muzzy titanium race pipe. He makes his own.
