This means that the KR, Gearbox, Wiring Loom, Bike Carbs, Fuel Pump and Regualtor are up for grabs
Also as a bit of an update, i heard from a friend that rear arches and the fuel filler have been sorted.
Slow and steady wins the race

planning on stripping it down and replacing all worn parts and sending the charger off for a refurb with possibly some tweaking
thanks for looking

only issues so far have been:
a snapped head off the top water pipe,
a couple of rounded exhaust manifold bolts
and now just need to remove the allen bolt at the bottom of the charger bracket to strip the rest of the front (but the heads rounded already)
here's some pics
Front mount acquired
and checked the fit of the manifold. Just need to clean up and wrap again
That;s it for now. Going to start cleaning up the gearbox and try and get that last charger bracket bolt off

where do you work then, offshore?
I;ve heard the drivers side is all welded up and passenger side has been started so it's getting there.
Might be a long shot but hoping to have the engine ready for when it comes back from paint
im still working in the UK, i just went to Canada for the rest of the snow season.. soo much fun

yeah really can't wait to see the fresh new paint on this and now set myself the challenge of trying to get the engine ready for when it comes back.
probably a lil bit optimistic but we'll see..
I will laugh if this comes back to me before the mk2 though

Cable shifter and suited tower
Engine loom and jabbasport chipped ECU (unsure if i'm going to be using this ECU as i have a standard aswell)
Clutch cable to hydro converter
