Sort out some head restraints
|
Notes
|
Half done, but I'm no longer sure about the design.

|
Sort out some weather gear
|
This item appeared a while ago. The tonneaux are now fitted, but I'm still thinking about a hood.

Hammerite front suspension bits
|
From experience with the Westfield it's a good idea to try and stop some of the bits of the front suspension
rusting before they start.
|
Finding the time

|
Fit the bootbox carpet
|
This is getting ridiculous.
|
In desperation I've fitted (well, it's not stuck down) the black stuff that I've got. I suspect I'll leave it
there.

Make pedals work properly
|
|
Clutch slave cylinder modified to allow clutch pedal to be moved further away.
Changed the size of the throttle pedal which makes things much better. Still more work needed though.

Sort the instruments out

|
Fix the seat backs in position properly.
|
They keep moving about. There's some chunky velcro to fix them with but it needs attaching properly.

|
Fit an oil catch tank
|
I'd like to do this as I don't like running the oil breather into the air filter, it would be necessary for
some circuit running too.

Revisit the fit of the expansion tank
|
I'm still not happy with the expansion
tank. Perhaps what I need is to find a different tank...

Sort out the oil system
|
This is going to be expensive. The various options are documented elsewhere.
|
Pricing it up

Look into gearbox oil leak
|
|
Fixed leak in the unused mechanical speedo connection.

|
Line wheel arches with bungy rubber
stuff
|
|
I've re-fitted the rear arches so the tyre clearance is better.
Finally, this one is done!

|
Fit nut covers to sidescreens
|
There are some exposed nuts on the outside of the sidescreens. I've got some nut covers for them but
need to get around to trimming the bolts and actually fitting the covers.
|
Rather than fitting nut covers, I've ground the nuts smooth(er)
|

|
Make the choke work properly
|
It just needs the cable sorting out properly.

|
Stop the exhausts rattling
|
This needs a self-tapper, right through the side of the exhaust and going into the tube in the middle,
so as to stop it rattling about.
