Congratulations, it sounds lovely, and if you're anything like me it's one of the best feelings around when you fire a bike up for the first time.

Well done.

thanks for the kind words guys and yes it was a great feeling of accomplishment to finally see her and hear her fire up!
Ps Bill it was the paint curing on the pipe which I made from scratch and was only just recently painted regards Al

Thanks Carlo
I thought it was pretty good myself , and am very happy with the whole thing the way it is coming together considering that not that long ago I wondered if I would ever finish it???
with some parts being so hard to get and trying to get people do things the way I want them done.
It nearly ended up being sold of for whatever I could get!!! anyway I had some friends keep me working on it and thanks to there encouragement its now looking like I might finish it in time to take it up to the Barry Sheene at Eastern Creek Raceway later in a few weeks.
