Thank you, the work was all done by someone else (his people are known to my friends people who spoke to my people), so I cannot claim rights on the finish. Needless to say it is a fun piece of machinery to drive.

Welcome,

Now that you have found us you won't be able to leave it alone. Or stop at just one bug.

That is one nice looking bug. Very clean.

I need to fix a few engine oil leaks, it is a bit like an old triumph motorcycle in that regard in the engine department.

I bought some mags and decent rubber off evil-bay, the tops of the back wheels sit just outside the guards but there is way too much positive castor on the rear. I am thinking that adjusting the castor will bring the wheels inside the guards.
