Bugger bugger bugger

pics of the srx600 from brisvagas/Australia attached. looks bad, lots of water from the flood and no way to get back to home to fix it....

deeply disappointed - probably just needs a solid clean but don't have bodies on the ground.

Tank is ok - that was saved by dad - have lost cafe seat and rear cowl and I think that held my LED taillight. figure water has probably gone through the exhaust to the engine?? Christ knows if it will ever go again...

any volunteers to wash the poor old girl?

April 29th 2011

Apparently some german bloke is marrying some english bird today?? How anyone can possibly give two shits about this is beyond me but I got a day off so I managed to clean some of the bike up. Parts below plus a couple of reprints to show you what it looked like at the start...

Am straying from the bobber idea to a cafe racer style bike - closer to my heart but we'll see how that develops.

Successfully cleaned and stripped the brakes. The brake pad pin had rusted tight so a fair amount of swearing and WD40 applied to get the thing off. Am going to repaint the brake body once we get closer to running.

carbs still with Steve so we'll need to wait for that to progress before jumping in any further.
