5000 of those views are from me. LOL very cool work.

Looking forward to the pictures of the finished product.
And the ride report of the maiden voyage.

SHE RUNS ! SHE RUNS !
I could hardly believe it, but she fired right up !!! Wog was right on the money ! I primed the fuel pump, as well as the float bowls with 180ml of fuel as per Randakk video, and the bike almost started on the very first crank
Didn't even smoke, I was expecting clouds of smoke, spluttering and farting, at the very least - it was almost too easy

THANK YOU NGWC, from the bottom of my heart I thank you guys - you've enable a guy who has never worked on a motorcycle, to strip a 38 year old vintage bike down to the very last nut and bolt and rebuild it to this.
Without your advice, guidance, encouragement, and parts, there simply is no way I could ever have achieved this - you are my brothers for life, and I will always be in your debt and forever grateful

Here's a vid of the start-up:

And here's a boring walk-around with no sound:

It has been a long journey my friend, and you have come thru with flying colors. A family affair, and a gorgeous bike. Congratulations

Sure is a good looking family. Very nice done Norbert. You seemed shocked at it starting, I don't know why with your skills. The bike looks and sounds excellent.

Wonderful, we all knew you could, and would do it. You are a very talented and skilled mechanic!

The picture with your family and the bike is priceless.

Cheers bro,

Magic Norbert, magic. After all that countless hours and problems the satisfaction is worth it. Hope you and the kids can sleep tonight.

Now every one needs a helmet and a spin around the block.

Enjoy it.

I have really enjoyed following your progress on this project and sharing it with my students.

Congratulations!

Now for the really fun bit of tying it all up with some paint and detailing.

BRAVO!!
Your video with them is priceless!

Norbert;

I am totally blown away at how great your bike came out. If mine gets to looking 1/2 as good, I'll be happy.

The vid of the start up was excellent.

It amazes me that the bike motor parts poster I have in my living room looks, runs and sounds so well. (apparently it smells good too)

Good job!

Nice job kid.

IT'S ALIVE!!!

excellent job!!!
Love the work you've done!!

excellent job Norbert. i am surprised that you were surprised.... now , ride

Gents thank you so much for the kind words - I really do appreciate your comments, and the time you guys take to assist and encourage those of us that need it
(My daughter really is a petrol head isn't she ?, enjoying those exhaust fumes )

Got a few minor teething problems, mainly the fan isn't coming on, will post in the Tech Discussions on those...
