ok so - Front brake / hand brake all set up. and how many cables do i need to throw on the front end all made up to length today - dull  day but productive. clutch, front brake, hand brake, choke, decompressor, advance/retard. looking solid if a little busier than ideal

along with my sumo patent pending front panther clutch lever handbrake conversion [robbed off a quad] thats why the 2 cables down to front wheel

not put anything on here in a while. the crank above was wrong so changed the maths on that now

i actually took it a ride up and down the road yesterday Grin which is a pretty big landmark in any build

got back and one of the pop brakes has started sticking on so need to pull that wheel off and get a look at that today.

so i have 4 weeks till the dragon to get it wired, finish front guard and get it legal. fingers crossed, its doable as long as  can sort the dvla check thing in time

ok - little vid - so second test ride [was seeing if brakes would bed in any - they are only just better than useless] rear right also sticks on every now and then and does work well then...

also i seem it have some sort of issue that the gearbox moves 1/8" when i engage first from neutral [box is pushed by the shift]

it does seem to ride pretty nice and fit me well when its moving along the road though - i'll get there
