    Bad bits:

    Was told faulty coil but after getting there the rings were obviously worn
    There's no lock in the seat at all
    Tatty bodywork
    Ripped seat
    Needs general TLC

    It's something that we've spoke about. ;) Not really got the money for it at the moment though unfortunately and gotta look into it a bit more.

    Iron sport Malossi 70 Kit, Yasuni Z exhaust and some rollers have been ordered. Will be here nice and early tomorrow! :yahoo:

    Well to be honest I wanted to source parts needed quickly and ideally get it done start to finish in around a week so wanted this to be something that's quite speedy and in essence simple

    Hoping to source something else as a project when this is done and look to make it a little more exciting. ;)

    That's what I thought mate :) need to sort a seat lock out and would like another seat as this one's a little tatty. Apart from what's been going off in the project thread I think I'm going to take off the front mud guard, respray in a nice candy red and black wheels. :)
