There's nothing that doesn't need painting straightening and/or replacing!  What's in the pic will be straightened and painted and pretty much everything else will be replaced.  Where's that overtime sheet gone..... | ||

Only took about 2-3 hours on my own, but it's going to take someone a lot longer to put back together!! Is it just me, or do bikes look at their very best in that state? When I was wheeling it around the garage it felt so 'right', so much like I'd want it to feel on track. It's going to be a crying shame to put bodywork back on it.  At least when I stop DD I'll have a great basis for a seriously stripped-down track bike  1100DS engine? BST wheels? Carbon tank and bikini fairing? One day.... | ||

I just couldn't agree more. When I'm breaking bikes, I obviously get them to that stage more often than most, and I have the same thought every single time I do it. "man, If only it were this light, and this responsive in the steering" I guess we both need to buy a GP125. I'd like to see you get behind the bubble on one of those! | ||
