Update 3

Thought I'd better report on the progress. The first picture shows the rocker box set up for drilling out the decompression arm bushing. The second showing the new leaded bronze bush fitted. It's always worthwhile doing this as its a major source of oil leaks, this one was seriously worn.
Picture 3 shows the Electrex rotor and stator fitted, very easy to set up. This version supplies current for lights etc, all the gubbins is fitted under the seat, picture to follow, I forgot today.
Picture 4 is new Hagon shocks, a bit of a departure for me as I don't usually replace them, I don't go fast enough for old ones to be a problem but unfortunately they were bent so replacement was unavoidable.
Picture 5 is the progress to date, waiting for mudguards, chroming, and chain and sprocket. The latter were 'lost in the post', a first for me that. No problem though as Sprockets Unlimited are claiming against Parcelforce and sending replacements.
And of course I'm still waiting for an age related number, I thought I might make it to the Chip Shop Run but not likely now, not on this one anyway.
Thanks to Brian Slack for the use of his lathe to make an exhaust header pipe extension and headlamp fittings.
