Well if you're off out just now, watch out for flash thunderstorms.
We've just had an absolute howler in leicester.

Bit tricky right now, I have a Tiger cub nearing completion, and another one in boxes not started yet, plus an M600 engine needing a strip down just to tidy it up, and my wife keeps asking me when I,m going to clean the windows.

Not really, she thinks that at 73 years of age I should know better. I know I will grow up one day, I just need more time.

Very nice that, well done.
I also have one of those fender extenders and intend to fit it for the same reason that
you have as I believe the good outweighs the bad.

Can I ask you where you had the seat recovered?

Reminded me of my s4. Well done sir. I like it too. I dont like fender extenders but have one on my 1100s but it had already started chipping stones. Mind you the new monster ones are a lot shorter. I respect you for your work.

I made the frame plugs, and the seat was re covered by Lee of Viking Vinyl in Ash, Kent, after reading a recommendation by a member on this forum. £75. Plus postage both ways, I,m really pleased with that seat job.
