Made some DIY decals for the side stripes..



Fitted the handrail assembly with some alloy brackets to support the side panels .. The rear flap and lock is not original, but should do the trick. It is after all a teenage learner 125 which will get lots of abuse..





Now for the front centre fairing panel.. Rubbed down and two coats primer...then rain (and daylight) stopped play Confused

Ok... It's not about Dec's bike, but these dark wet evenings just kill the chance to get anything done soooooooo..

Watched ROAD tonight and WOWZERS what a emotional film!
Blinking fantastic, its the first time in years that I've had tears down my face like a big girl.

Definitely worth a watch .. Big screen tele, surround sound up, alcohol in hand and kids in bed..

Some parts literally took my breath away !



If only the Dunlops rode an AR125 Surprised)

Uh oh... Feel a sense of responsibility now .. Lol
Hope you enjoy it like I did. Wouldn't work watching it on the train, it's not that kind of film - needs atmosphere .. But you may still miss the stop Surprised)

    Get SPR pipes to fit R barrels or source other pipes.
    Buy and fit fiberglass bodywork.
    Get running. MoT.


I've done very little over the last year about getting it back on the road after my big off. Busy with rellys dying and work.[/list][/list]

Would have loved to have seen that, can just imagine it would look like you were pedalling it trying to find the pegs!
