Been tuning up the Ducati and have the beezer together even though this is the third time I still find new issues. Keep learning little idiosyncrasies that each Brit bike has. It is not all original but it is close(ish) and will continue to be a work in progress. Next winter will be cosmetics if I can work out the kinks mechanically this year. The tank is the wrong year, and the seat mount has it a bit far forward, but other than that it all seems pretty good. Starts second kick every time. I'm not allowed to start it in the house though, it was one of the two concessions I had to make to be allowed in my wife's domain with my bikes. The other was no carb or gas work in the house. But for the sake of a warm space where my wife remembers to give me sandwiches every once and a while, I'm a happy man! I also posted a couple questions under parts wanted about the bsa...I don't know if I have the primary side set yet as for a clutch cover and chain tensioner but please read that post if you think you might be able to help.
The Ducati for those of us that we're at okeef this year has been a major pain in the ass electrically! Almost every wire in the whole damn bike was rotten.most of which has been repaired or replaced now. Part of my starting problems were due to cracked wires grounding out, and/or blowing fuses. I have never seemed to get it back in tune as good as my first few runs on it but am getting close. The only thing missing is the air boot to the filter, other than that its all there and pretty much original with 1410miles on it and no that's not a typo!
Can't wait for the snow to melt and make it out for a ride
See you boys soon
