Bit more progress to report this week. After finishing fitting the side panels, scuttle & nose cone. I thought it was time to put the front suspension back on. I have still got to set up all the geometry, and do the cycle wing brackets but it is starting to look good I think.

It also meant I could fit the front brake flexi's and put some fluid in the system. Borrowed Gus's Gunson easy bleed. What a brilliant tool. Bleed brakes in about 10 minutes. Had one weeping joint that needed tightening but that was all. Pedal is rock solid. Left brakes jammed on overnight, and glad to report I had no leaks this morning.

That's another job off the list. Couldn't resist trying one of wheels on to see what it looked like. A few more pics follow for those of you who like to see how it is coming along.







Thanks for looking

Dave
