Gidday,
We started off like this today on this lovely Sunday morning..
Then I removed the tank and not a wire or cable out of place the I cold tell, yes it was dusty but all looked very original still and neatly laid out etc with no corrosion on any wires to be found or any brittle wires, which was unlike the red RS I brought..
Also when I went to remove the seat from off the bike, it still had the two tiny circlips attached to the pins, never seen them before on a bike as they are a pita and fiddly plus the seat hinges still have the rubber/plastic wrapping attached to the inner curves, I don't think the seat has been off the bike before..
The headlight was then removed and again, perfect original condition, neatly packed with what looked original label on the loom.
So its looking like this after a couple of hours and I am now going to start treating the surface rust on the frame by brushing the areas with RustBuster then leave to sit for a few days while it kills the rust, this I used on the old 1928 Chevy and it is simple and works a treat

I'll just keep chipping away at this over winter..
