Any info is good, once i get the tubes apart i will have a better idea their in 'soak' so watch this space. yes, thanks for that, i have looked at their site its very good. I have not stripped things yet but the forks are solid! won't move a mm let alone an inch.
The bike seems to unmolested with the exception of the handle bars, what's the pet/oil mix ratio? its broken the gear select spring but i have a new one.
the first job is just to get it running then it is my intention to give it a sympathetic restoration.
