Ahh, thanks Andy. I'm not touching the engine myself. Not really that sure to do it myself so leaving it to a friend.

I do the welding with help from a mate. I'm a Joiner by trade. Total cost I can imagine to be around £3,200, the powdercoating is mates rates etc. The major costs are the wheels, forks, tank and exhaust. Originally I set out to tidy it up - I'v gone way past that stage now. But it doesn't bother me, It won't be sold - plus It'll be like a brand new bike when complete. Its points, yeah - I will be checking for wear. One of the plastic camchain guilds has f**ked up aswell so engines getting stripped to get checked.

Thats where i'm currently at with it. Getting new tyres next week, front forks are away at philpots getting rechromed, engine I need to vapour blast down, I'v also ordered the alloy yolks to alter the head angle slightly as I didn't fancy cutting my frame. Various bits and pieces. Getting a new cam chain for her. I also bought a new original rear rim as a spare for when I get a TLR250. Had both them anodised Gold while I had my new wheels built up, hence why I have two sets. I'll be running tubeless on this though, there Morad GasGas 36 spoke rims.

Hello, Used to have a 2007 Sherco cabeystany when I was younger but sadly had to sell due to buying my first house. Got into superbikes, trackdays but trial bikes never really left me. Didn't want a new trial bike due to not having much free time as wanted something I could only use maybe once a month yet not lose me much / if any money. So I came across this for £1000. Tidy and a godd runner, started stripping straight away. I'll just chuck a load of pictures up, you'll follow it.
