It breaks my heart sometimes to think of some of the bikes I've had in the past 7 how cheap I sold them for.
So, a little update. I've been having electrical problems with the little 200, which i think I may have found. The electric start spring was staying connected when the engine was running & burned out 2 Reg/Recs
. I've ripped the wiring out & will be performing a little surgery on a couple of broken wires too.
On a plus point, she now has a new seat cover, which I'm not too pleased with, so have ordered another to get it right & stainless steel clutch & brake bolts. I've also glass fibred the broken seat cowl & have my decal set ready for when it eventually gets painted. Money is a little tight at the mo, so play has stopped for the time being. I did solve a little problem with the bike's running, I'd fitted 2 left hand slides in the carbs, so that's now sorted & she runs sweet.
