Probably crank seal change and re-shaped exhaust if me welder mate can get himself out of bed. This year might actually pollute with blue smoke on the 25th if weather not too rotten - first time for that in years.

Sort of related to Christmas, been having a sort out and came across an old pic of my 400 S3 that I rode regularly 20 years ago. Swopped it for a British bike and should never have done that, the bloke that had it from me crashed it badly and broken up. The wheels were genuine period after markets.
Wish I still had it.

Looks like a tough one... use the "Kargle" from the top one to make the bottom one more sturdy.

I'm hoping to do a frame swap over the hollidays. Might happen, fingers crossed.
