An absolute pleasure. I hope it compliments a lovely restoration. Can't wait to see it when you have it all put together and working. (It will never be finished, they never are) 🤣👍

I have been making some more progress. Trial fitted the exhaust system I bought as spares with the ' black bobber', as expected it fits fine. Just couldn't resist the urge to see the bike in it's new clothes, so once again I have gone too early. It looks awesome, I'm now officially a convert from silver. so, with my morale now high, I will try to get this thing finished.

I am pleased to report that following a period in intensive care, VOA199S is going to make a full recovery. Vital fluids were administered via an external drip, with additional aerosol given orally Much to my surprise, It fired right up. exhaust is leaking everywhere, the clamps that came with the system are not much use. I will buy Mikalor clamps like the other bike, they seem to work well. A few days of tidying up and I should be nearly there, still looking for a couple of parts, LHS mirror, heatshields, and a rear footpeg.

That’s interesting on the exhaust - I have had same issue but used a bit of exhaust pipe repair to seal them
