I bought another curvy a couple of weeks back. It looked like this from a distance
And looked like this close up
Bike runs well enough but is a wee bit unloved.
I started to remove bits for a tidy up, and have gradually reduced it to this
Wasn't too bad considering most fasteners had been tightened by Zeus and coated in salt water. A few screws were pre-rounded off which saved me doing it!
Got the engine up on the bench and treated it to a steam clean and a couple of coats of paint
Now the long road back
I'll either keep you posted on progress or you'll see me selling all the bits.
