    Lady Penelope runs finally !!!!

    Yup,....she goes now.

    Wannabiker and Nasty came over tonight.
    We had a look and Wannabiker found the issue rather quickly (and embarrasingly for me !!).
    Just one wire needed earthing !!
    Most of the time all it takes is a fresh set of eyes to see what's wrong.

    Anyway, we got her running

    Here's one of the movies Nasty took for us when we first got it going.
    After a wee bit of carb tweaking she runs sweetly (Lady Penelope that is,.not Nasty !!!).
    Apologies for the darkness, the footage was taken in a garage.

    BIG HUGE THANKS TO WANNABIKER !!!

    Thanks,...but errr,...she's still not quite ready.
    Front wheel spacers have to be sorted, have to do a spacer for the rear sprocket,...have to do plastic sliders for the "touching down" bits, and a few more odds and ends that takes time.

    I want her to go out all sorted and not break-down on the first race.

    But as Nasty says, it sounds awesome, nice deep mellow sound.

    Nah, didn't get her out then, but working on the next meeting.
    Looking to take her for her first ride this weekend.

    Dangerous,...that's Lady Penelope, she was in her undressed state while starting up.
    Love to come down, unable to unfort.
