right small update on hold at the moment as I'm waiting on some stainless steel bolts

and also as my main ride has decided it wants some love and money spent on it by developing a gear issue and eating the rear wheel bearing

Well I've got the drive to kick-start this project back up.

After the good weather has come in to stay and walking in to the garage were its been sat for the past month but will need to wait till the end of the month to start on it. As it turns out my gearbox issue was a bent selector fork which is now in for repair and also needing new tyres

but will hopefully start the project sooner if i can
