    So here is my little project. Will be starting the tear down tomorrow. Bike came with no keys too so should be fun trying to start it :p.

    Good luck with that, Riddick.:) Hopefully it will be straight underneath all that damaged plastic. I would imagine that most parts will be available from various breakers/ebay etc.

    So here an update.

    The bike runs and sounds great. Had to make my own key for it. The speed four rear fairing fit like a glove. The moron that tried sorting the wiring loom out needs to be shot. will upload those pictures tomorrow as I forgot. Will install the new forks tomorrow if weather is good.

    If you change the cooling system expansion tank and a couple of mounting brackets the bodywork from the Daytona 600/650 fits a treat.....

    So here is the update I have now installed forks and mud guard. Old ones were bad. Neighbor let me use his gate to lift bike up to work on it. Solenoid arrived few minutes ago so might put that in bit later tonight. Just need to sort front end out now and get some foot pegs for it and give a good service and it will be ready for a test ride.

    That’s coming along nicely now Riddick, got any plans to change the standard silencer, it’s only about half a mile shorter than those once fitted to the MZ250 two stroke :p (google it)
