Good buying, you won't find another. Really looks good, but I am biased I like blue on blue. :badger:

So my 1VJ3TB34LS10 is running..... :funkynanna:

Had an oil leak from the pipe near the filter but changed the washer & it's ok now.... I'm happy, considering all the engine parts were sourced from eBay & autojumbles & it started first prod...

Need to adjust the tappets & get it painted, oh & I still need a TCI box, I nicked this one off Tenere 2

Made a dodgy video (no not that sort of video :birdgrin: ) with my phone.....

I'm taking this one home now while I wait for the plastics to be painted, next up is another 3AJ (alongside the 55W)...

Hi Geoff, wonderful job as always, but is the rear brake hose just hanging there on the outside of the swingarm?

It looks as though it may be vulnerable to being caught and ripped off, or am I misunderstanding what I'm seeing?

But anyway, lovely work as usual.

Thanks Neale... all the brake hoses are like this on the 3AJ's...... it's fixed to the swinging arm with a small bracket...
