Took the Sprint out for the first time ride this morning. Very cold and the roads were treacherous first thing although improved a little when the sun came out. Lovely torquey motor, felt like plenty of low down grunt didn’t explore higher revs, wasn’t the day for it. Can see where the T300 top heavy rep comes from, it does sort of tip into corners at low speed. Nothing alarming but it is there. Good to get some fresh fuel into the bike. Brakes work well, gearbox works fine and the motor sounds lovely to me. Comfy old brute of a bike, I like it. Good first impression.

I was welding a fixing to the frame of my K100 to increase the height of the front of the tank a bit and thought it smelled odd as I was welding, turns out I picked up a brass filler rod by mistake so its now brazed rather than welded. Can't be arsed to cut it off and start again ... seems secure so I'll go with it

Good to hear @Saul....you've done a grand job of cleaning that beast up. Gonna be a decent ride for the street....

I got my new headlights from Germany today, Mercedes in their wisdom and for some reason after market manufacturers don’t make right hand drive headlights for my car anymore. The headlight shell on one side is cracked and the lenses are both clouded and have been polished to many times now. I took a chance on aftermarket lhd headlights as they looked like a direct copy, with the plan of putting the rhd low beam reflectors in from my existing lights. Thankfully I was right so after a little bit of work I will have new headlights.

Nice looking bike...!

Definitely looks better without the rack. What's with that seat though?

Plenty to do yet, but I have made a start.

They are now officially part of Bajaj, once Bajaj buys Indian @Marcel will be able to get both his bikes fixed at the same place.

Been pissing down off/on here since 3am....yesterday was much nicer....glad I got out on the Mullet when I did...

Yes I need to put new brake lines on the car but it’s too cold.

Well the cunt could have signed the divorce papers before flouncing off....
