There's a lot of oxidisation of the aluminium on this bike but I reckon that should clean up easy enough.

So far on my list of things I definitely need to do:

1. Sand back and paint fairing brackets.
2. Plastic weld the back of the fairing so it sits nicer and create brackets to hold the fairing together better (hidden of course).
3. Strip the forks, find some new stanchions or get the incumbents re-ground and re-chromed (expensive), redo seals.
4. Replace the wheel bearings.
5. Strip the calipers, sand and repaint, clean out pistons and replace if necessary (urgh - expensive). Replace brake pads.
6. Sand back the wheel and varnish the bare aluminium (I like the bare ali look).
7. New tyre. This bike has a 120 front and it should have a 100-90/16 front)
8. I've checked the steering head bearings which seem tight but I'll take out the steering and completely clean and re-grease the bearings.
9. Sand back, clean and repaint the master cylinders and replace the banjo bolts as they're rusted.
