It wouldn't be a proper resto if it didn't take at least 2 years  Looking good so far though  |

We've all been there Boots! I bought some eBay cushdrive rubbers and the GSX chewed them up in a few weeks Suzuki ones cost 4x as much but as far as I know they're still in the bike. |

Yeah lessons learnt chaps.........it wouldn` be so bad if i hadn`t eaten into the budget for this by having to get the car repairs done. Still........onwards and sideways as we say  |

That is very annoying Boots, I stopped going for cheap stuff years ago. I learnt those lessons with the allotment, cheap lawnmower, spade, fork
etc.
Just no point, as it'll only fall apart or won't work when you get it.
