Excellent work.
Is that all just touched up or fully repainted?
Just wondering when some pics have bits masked off.

Apart from the tank everything else has been touched up as you put it.

Well I've finaly got there.

All thanks to Keith, (Nasty) roadrunner and our fully stocked parts department run by creedxup.

I got the shock back and fitted yesterday. Today roadrunner came round to be a hinderence, sorry I meant to give me a hand putting all the panels back on.

After a lot of huffing and puffing from him we eventually got them all back on.

I must say it does look well. I took it for a ride out to the next village and with the shock being refurbed and new tyres on it now handles like a dream. I also have a rear brake that works.

I took a photo of the slow progress everytime we got a panel on. I hope there isn't to many.

Lovely, when I see pics of good RWB 89's I miss mine.
I sometimes wonder if my old one is still in good nick and on the road.
Shame the new owner never signed up to the forum.

That is looking brilliant, a lot of work justly rewarded by a cracking bike.

Thanks everybody for your lovely comments.

I've been waiting ten years to do the old girl up. I could'nt do anything like this over in Greece. All I could do was watch the bike slowly deteriorate year by year. Now I'm back in the UK I've put my heart and soul in to it over the winter months and quite a bit/lot of cash too.

The camera makes it look a lot better than it really is. It's not perfect but it will do till next winter. Look out nasty I'll be back.

I've just ordered a new horn for it and when that arrives so will the sunshine so get ready everybody to start your engines. It'll be cracking the flags next week.
