Starting issue was resolved today. Roger in Palmers Rd, awesome guy, turns out my wiring wasn't quite accurate, had a sticky brush and paint had seeped into the earth connection. So for a damn reasonable price that is all sorted and it has a new warrant! I"m rapped and looking forward to taking her on the ride to Hurunui tomorrow and meeting you all. Yes it is pretty tidy considering her age. Just need to get a new panel cover over the battery, its currenlty tied on with cable ties, though you can't see it by looking at her. And repair the split in the seat. Also not so sure about the original exhaust. Thinking the baffles may have been taken out of it actually, its kinda noisey lol

It gets me on the road, and the bike is nearly as old as I am and looking better lol even if I did take the pic from her good side!

That's not always a bad thing IMHO. Not too loud for the WOF so it can't be too bad.

Have fun out there...

Seat repairs / re-covering - try upholstery yard on Wordsworth St, between Colombo and Durham. Just had DR seat re-profiled & re-covered, tidy work and reasonably priced.
