Picked it up last night, gona need some help with bits of it due to it being in a bit of a mess. IE wiring around the front end and battery box.
Rad guards i was thinking of Kawasaki Green..... what do you all reckon.
I will post some pics and questions tomorrow for your advice.
Going to be after some bits if anyone can help ?

Cheers r101
 
Ok where do i start.
Questions first hey.
The bloke i bought the bike off had purchased a second hand lock set because the bike came with no key. How do i go about getting the key coded to the bike ?
In the front of the frame as you look at the headstock area there is a bike square hole in the frame does this have a plastic cover panel ?
Does the back tail unit have a center panel around the light.

List of bits if anyone can help
Front forks
Clutch master cylinder
Front mudguard
n/s belly pan panel
o/s top rad plastic panel
Set of front caliper bolts
Both sides tank plastic infill panels
Rear light unit
Undertray
Speedo bracket
Gear lever rubber end part
N/s rear side indicator
Handle bars.
Set of exhaust cans ??

much appreciated for your time in reading this add and if you can help in anyway that will be even better.
Any tips on service would be sound.

Regards r101

Dinna listen ti Rico....bling it ti fook and beyond, it's the way forward. Why have a bike like a T - which face it we like because it's different in the first place - and no make it oor ain. Black is so cliched and boring. Saying that my T was blinged up before I got it and so far got aboot a 85 to 15% positive feedback on the bling factor. Saying that I do like the Black paint/gold frame look.....very JPH looking:)
 
Up date and question

Now got most of the bits together to start the rebuild.

Fitted new subframe (which was twisted) but the tank seems very tight to get past the riser and top headstock is this usual ?? i have checked and the frame or top headstock is not bent/ pushed back. The way which can only be the right way ? is to slide the back of the tank into its mount and then push the front of the tank down past the headstock to fasten the front bolts and this is where the problem lies. Any ideas ???
