Featured Restoring A 1969 T100r

Finished off fitting pistons n barrels, popped engine in the frame and fitted rear subframe n swing arm.

 

Making a big effort as i have let it slide for far too long now doing other jobs and generally slacking and i want to do my 66 next and put it on the road.

 

A few hours work the forks have been rebuilt with new bushes, seals etc and the old battered headlight is now back on after repairing the dents and rechroming sorted the wiring and fitted new loom.

 

Bit more progres, fitted bars and levers and rebuilt hubs with new bearings so i can rebuild the wheels with the newly chromed original Dunlop rims.

 

Wheels built today as Tig popped round to hang the rims with me, a great mate and real fast, i will fit the tyres and get them on the bike this week

 

Steady Joe you'll have me getting all big headed lol

 

Little bit more work done in the last few mornings, cyl head rebuild along with rocker boxes, tyres fitted, head back on engine with new gaskets and pushrod seals and new old stock manifolds fitted as previous owner had fitted a single carb.

 

Another few hours spent on fitting front brake plate and chrome drum finisher, oil tank and tool box along with the correct twin carbs as it had been fitted with a single carb

 

Yes 650 over and 500 under

 

Loads more done this week, finished off engine and fitting electronic ignition, finished off gearbox build, finished off back wheel and fittings, fitted chain and its guard, started with breather pipes, started lining up the exhausts, oils in engine n box n forks and loads more little bits going to be touch n go if i can finish this July 1969 bike by the end of July.
