Hi Folks, been lurking occasionally for a few months.
There's an 81 Bonnie in the garage in large lumps that is an ongoing project. I wanted to make a TT replica, but its hard to find yellow off road parts, so I plan to make an ISDT style bike. (Hey, I'm getting old, and I like my KTM supermoto sit up and beg style.)
I've been watching a very nice TR25W in a local dealers for the last 9 months, but felt it was overpriced. The week after my 50th, the dealer knocked $1500 off the price, the same day the wife said she still hadn't bought me anything nice for my birthday. Serendipity or what?
1970, 5800 miles, very tidy, some slight signs of wear, but pretty much as it left the factory. Dealer is doing all the rego work and a quick service next week. It is for sunny sundays - plenty here in Australia - and the odd 30km commute to work.
I hope I will be posting about rides, not seeking advice on repairs, however I have ordered parts book and a manual. A T150 oil filter and some new cables are next on the list, and possibly a Leccy ignition to replace points. Anyone got a preference on that score?
