I thought about jumping a flight but after how bad the front brake is I'm glad I didn't.

Not sure why it's cut in half. Hopefully they show up properly on a pc, I'm only on a phone.

It has a front brake now, just tail light to sort now.
It needs grease, everywhere, but that'll have to wait as only so much bitter cold I can take.

Bristol, it was an absolute nightmare of traffic jams and roadworks, almost 4 hours added to the round trip.
It was so bad I came back through Wales.
The bikes all there, now with a burst shock, new ones in the post. Bit of rust sorting, maybe a respray and get a screen made for it and its happy days.

Did a bit more to it. New shocks after popping one the other day, also took the fairing off as it was fouling, I'll sort it when I can be bothered, somethings bent.
Can't believe how cold it was, I'll sort the air filter tomorrow

It looks very good, at least a lot better than mine before I rebuild it.
If you are not looking for a job you can let it as it is now, but if you are looking for a job it has enough for you.
I wish many easy-going routes

I'm working my way through any issues I turn up, it'll probably just get hammerite thrown at it.
I've had enough of fixing broken things so got something only a little bust

How are those new shocks? are the springs the correct strength?

I've not had a chance to ride it yet, the bounce test says a little stiffer but not much, they're also about a cm longer on lowest setting.
It was a link on here that pointed me to them.
