    Looking good.
    Did you leave the electric start on? If so the big neutral light won't be quite so critical, pretty sure Michelle's fired up on the button in gear with the clutch in after I crashed it last month.
    Looks like only numbers and nylon to go. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh next week.
