Nah, its pretty tidy really. Needs a bit of tarting up on some stuff, will probably change the filters soon and get out riding!

Clutch had started slipping on this, so I ordered a new set of friction plates, then my dad mentioned loosening off the cable and now its sorted! Also had a weeping fork seal on one leg, taken it all apart today and the seals are new, but the leg is pitted, so I will have to find a replacement or get the pair re-chromed.

Fork legs sent off today, along with a pair from my DT250MX, will get a thread for that done when I start putting it back together!

Good fun! Properly screams at the top end, and now the forks have oil in them that stays for more than one ride, seems to go round corners a little bit.

not bad for something 30 years old, would the rev counter be cable or electric?
