Got the beastie up and running,fork seals done,oil pump disconnected,got an issue with the clutch though,there is too much play at the lever,i've adjusted as per manual but it's still sloppy.....any advice?

You probably need a new cable, the one you have may have stretched.
I've been restoring a TY175 and the cable which looked OK had too much play. Got a new one from Trail and Trials (www.tytrials.co.uk). Works fine now
