You still haven’t convinced Sammy to empty that bin. :laugh: Good job Menace,I especially like the neat job you did on the electrics,or did you get someone to do that for you?

[dennis da menaceMember]

:laugh: thanks boys.

i was gonna finish the front end this arvo but i only got home from work (read “pub”) at 8pm :blink:

TB, i did consider painting the barrel and head…
and now every time i look at it it shits me. thanks “buddy”, now i will have to do it :laugh: :laugh:

Chris, i did cut and polish the tank, well more just polish. im on the hunt for new original decals for her and will get the tank done and have them gel coated in to the paintwork…….after louee sometime.

XY, the DT doesnt have a rim lock on the front wheel. there is a hole for one in the rim but its got a rubber plug/grommet in it from the factory. sammy wont need it…..yet :laugh: :laugh:

and Mick, Sammy reckons she would empty the bin if she had more length on her chain, the one thats tied to the sink…..honest :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Your one brave boy with comments like that.

If only Kylie would lengthen my chain so I could get to the bedroom and away from the sink, washing machine, ironing board – you get the drift.

Being a sparky I reckon he’d be confident enough to do it himslef Mick

Looks good though Menace, it’s surprising what a bit of TLC will do huh?

Tyne and Sammy can have a drag race now :laugh:

[Bruce CurtisMember]

Menace looking mucho betterer now, good job.

Hopefully you will have love and affection poured upon your goodself comerserate with the effort you put in.

Re the “drag” racing, I actually think it’s more likely you two being a POM and a Mexicano that you two would rather dress up in womens gear and make-up and ride really fast.

well, this much loved project is now pretty much completed…

it started first kick and everything works!!!!
it does have an idling issue whuch i will look into today. i think ill hose the carb out with brake cleaner and give it a blow job. if that doesnt fix it, our fearless leader,TB has offered to give her a tune before louee.

sammy is bloody stoked with it

the finished product

new grips and barkys

complete with tyre shine :laugh: :laugh:

now ive just gotta get that bin emptied

thanks to all for the encouragement given during this project, i appreciate it

my next one will be non bike related, but i may post it up anyway.
it will be “how to squeeze a 550 twin into where the 300 single was in my jetski”…..it will have its challenges :S

[Adrian LeeMember]

Looks great mate,Sammy must be rapt.I never doubted you for a minute,see boony i told you hed get it done.

[JohnMember]

Looks bloody awsome. Sammy would be one happy chicky.

I can hear the browny points ticking over from here. Kaching Kaching
