it's not my favourite scheme by any means, but it's complete, nothing but minor everyday wear and tear and will go right on the bike. It may take me forever to buy all the blue and white parts... lol

Dude, it's fucking ginger!

I'd think about stripping the carbs and brakes and getting them spot on before new bodywork.

I think that gold scheme was 750 only. Could be wrong...

Lying outrageously on the internet since 2002.

WEll the shopping has begun for Project 2.

BAttery bought
Oil filter bought.

Nothing else being spent until i have the bike and work out the plan of action on it. I'm still quite undecided on the course of action.
