Had a great day

Bike was doing fine besides some minor adjustments (thanks for the tips everyone!)

but will need a bigger rear sprocket (50 instead of 46)

Felt comfortable in the end but still such a long way to go...

When things became sketchy with #43R

As Stevie "funkyflipflop" said :
"Widows line...now fuck off !!"

10

Checked everything at least 10 times - all set to go

Hope the weather stays clear this weekend so that I can take it on it's maiden voyage

@ Eastbourne Speedway

#62R

Well here it is

Finally all done & ready for the first practice day in 2 weeks

Thanks again to everybody for your help wether is was for info, welding, paintjob, rebuilding the engine or transport...

...thank you !

It's far from perfect but it's all mine and I'm really happy with it

And yes, it's not a Harley but a Suzuki DR400 '81

Had this tank laying around for years already and glad I can finally use it

Would be a shame to mess with the original paint

Really looking forward to my first DTRA season 

#62R is the one to beat !

As you may still remember this bike belonged to Sam (RIP)

I'm pretty sure he would like the way it turned out

Miss you every day x
