More of a slider plate. 6mm aluminium.

Best to go for later forks?

Thanks for all your comments.

Now I’ve looked at the forks they do look a bit odd...may be wrong.

Exhaust is a definite job to do ( bit old for a racer boy) I like quiet.

recomendations for footrests?. I intend to strip it down replace what’s needed.

Tyres, will these be any good on dry loose almost desert ground as when it’s finished the plan is to ship it out to one of the driest regions of Spain (yes I know it’s like taking sandwiches to a picnic) They are a lot more expensive out there.

Runs and rides well. Exhaust is a bit loud, only advisory on the MOT said the same.

Will look at changing it to original.

Bit of a mongrel then. Think you are right about the engine. Just checked the number. 21w21306.

it’s not quite as good as it looks in the pictures but seems a good bike.

not sure where the exhaust is from.
