Well pleased, needs a new relay for indicators and a side trim for wing however it has had a new hood and tires last year and overall its pretty damn straight for 400 notes
It drives really well but seems heavier than my campaign through the corners at the back. Maybe some new shocks will help…
and one of the Campaign looking arty

put it in for its mot and had to change the rear brake hoses. not fun.
Put new copper pipes on and cylinders while i was there.
Banged in a new relay for indicators
put a new rear window rubber as the old one was welll goosed
pumped up the tyres, that sorted out handling :wink:
gave it a full service
Am currently using it every day, have put 200 trouble free miles on it now, not bad for about 500 sheets all in.
Now to sort the body out……….

?400 is about the right price for a cabby these days (there's a lot of overpriced hopefuls out there!), looks ok for the money.
what do you mean? mines worth alot more than that!
You got a bargain karlito! good job mate!

Trying to decide what to do with it now,
do i keep the clipper kit and lower it?
Do i bin the clipper kit and make it look like a convertible Campaign?
do i do a mixture of the above?
Do i do sod all and just get the tracking done?

Did toy with the idea if putting old style archs and bumpers on my clipper.
