Hi, from Reading, Berks, UK.

I've set up a blog at http://motorcycleres...s.blogspot.com/ to follow the restoration of my TY175, along with my NVT Rambler 125 (remember them??).

This is my first resto, and I'm trying to get it to highest standard I ca, Many, Many new old stock parts have been used, int bash plate, rear under guard plate, etc, etc. Most small parts are available from CMSNL - see link on blog page. Reasonably cheap, and reliable delivery.



Any commenst welcome, best regards Simon

That's not what I usually think of first! I'd get the TY and keep her happy.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm pretty pleased with it so far!.

btw, I'm with Spawtydog, let her have the TY, and she'll be 'grateful' ever after, well at least for 1 night?

I'd be interested to see how you rig up a scothbrite pad in a drill as I want to do a similar clean up.
