WOW! You are right Mike. Funny how a bike like this makes us just as excited as a pristine show bike. I guess we all like to rescue a 'Damsell in distress'. Lou

While the frame is painted, I work on wiring

As all is burned all is KO
And as I think the electricity is the reason of the fire I will take care of this part! ;D

Image

The base is a Pantah wiring
Ignition wiring is not modified
I add a Velleman kit for the charging indication

I take some time to test the old elements, the starter relay seem to be OK... I was wondering it was the reason of the fire... still mistery...

At last I kept starter and alternator because I want to be able to race hill climb (not only off road use)

Engine is a spare, I don't have enough time to restore the TT engine to be ready for this season, will do next winter
First goal is to ride again, fine tuned the chassis...

Fork is from a Suzuki
it was pretty common on TT in UK... less in France...

Painting

Tubes are KO
I found a Suzuki 1100 EF '83 with similar for but tubes are 50mm longest
Tubes for 1100 EF, diameter = 37mm and longer = 645mm, are available but impossible to find 595mm

Waiting to find the tube I fitted a 35mm Marzocchi :roll:
Last option is to buy a Magnesium Marzocchi but I really want to restore my TT as it was in the 80's... I don't want to do an another replica...

Unlike the seat let's think, my TT will not be painted green-white-red, neither yellow-red ;)

I love the look of your underground cavern!
Do you need to paddle up an underground river from a secret entrance
under a trapdoor in the study of your amazing villa to get there?

If so it must be quite hard moving the bikes around :)
