    Can't wait for a ride.
    Expect around 65 to 70 hp
    The pilot comes off his P's in June so she has to be finished & registered by then!
    Getting the carbies right will be the big test, I'll worry about that one later.

    A few more bits sandblasted, primed & 2 paked.
    Side coveres blasted & primed, got to pick a silver, theres a good Subaru colour I think will do
    Had to mask up the wheels & get some paint on the centres that I missed, more focus needed in the future. Doing this off the phone, funny if it works !

    Pics are a bit ordinary, I'll try harder, I'll put the new glasses on.
    Anyway, had a burst of energy tonight & the side covers are done.
    Subaru Light Silver does it again, 2 pak solid.

    A bit more progress this week.
    Engine has been all tightened up & squished.
    Fit the side covers on Saturday & in she goes.

    Helped fit the engine today, all ready to wire up etc.
    He's got a lot to do but why not when your retired!
    Thoughts are drifting to the prep & fit of the fairings, big job.

    Exhaust fitted, all good. Laid out the wiring loom, What a job & where will everything go now with the new single seat !!
    I got the old rear chassis out for a reference look & forgot how heavy it is compared to the new Tyga gear. IMG_1972.JPG

    More progress, but only after lots of head scratching & studying the Tyga site instructions !
    Anyway it does all fit, talk about compact. Tyga have done a great gob. IMG_2007.JPG IMG_2008.JPG IMG_2009.JPG

    One step forward & 2 back, slow progress, waiting for parts to arrive, brake kits & pads, new set of levers, carby kits, ignition switch & fuel cap, throttle tube & grips. IMG_2032.JPG IMG_2035.JPG
    Carbies are back off now awaiting a full rebuild.
    Everything should be here by the end of the week.
    In the mean time the rear upper fits, just a minor tweak to get the oil tank lid to line up.
    Carbon hugger fitted perfectly.
    Got a near new speedo, 350 Km's, wonder what happened to that bike !
    Replaced all the globes in the guages & dash, bit of a hunt & ended up with some LED's for the speedo & Tacho, T6.5 3w globes are hard to find.
