Gav came over today and we basically finished Roger...

Jobs done today:
* Replaced leaking core plug (rear of engine block)
* Tightened up slight fuel leak on carby
* Tightened up slight exhaust leak on manifold
* Adjusted throttle linkages
* Adjusted hand throttle
* Adjusted idle speed
* Greased prop-shafts and all tie-rod ends
* Put oil in the oil bath filter
* Adjusted the drivers door
* Installed the bonnet + spare wheel
* Bled the brakes (again)
* Drained water - replaced with coolant

What's left:
* Speedo cable died (another ordered)
* Slight weep from block tap (another ordered)
* Brakes not perfect - going to get the local mechanic to give 'em a go
* Roadworthy

The engine purrs like a kitten. The steering is as light as a feather. It drives BEAUTIFULLY..







A big thanks to Gav, Shaun & Mick... The project wouldn't have been such a success without these guys...

Great job mate, hopefully my Sons will turn out as good as yours, great to see another one hit the streets again.

Hi All,

I haven't updated this thread in a while - Roger is finished, RWC, and on classic plates...

Mate thanks for the kind words. Far from perfect but I am happy with the end result. I have been eagerly watching your thread - great work!

Hi Grey Ghost
Did you find the missing badge for 'Luke' ?
