And no sign of a droopy headlining either :thumb:

Lovely looking touring fella.

What's that cable running under your pedals?

And why is your steering column cover hanging down? :nono:


:wink:

Thanks for the comments :D She looks great in the pics although does have a few minor rust probs . . .

Roof lining's now held up thanks to the help of some spray adhesive (take out the rear courtesy light and spray away)

The steering column cover is hanging as it has a split where it slots into the steering column and slips out at times, need a replacement at some time

The cable in the footwell is an old speaker cable that fell out when the steering column slipped, will be removed when I get round to putting speakers in the front . . .

Agreed about the towbar, but its a nessesacity (?..) I'm what munky calls a "trailer queen" doing trackdays on the bike . . .

Was going to put the 325 badge back on or debagd it completly, but could be more fun putting 318 badge back when its sprayed :twisted:

almost a shame about the twin exhausts . . .
