    Great job Mark it's looking great, nearly there mate. As a side note that may save you a few dollars. I use a produce called "Panel wipe" it's produced for the automotive paint trade and costs a lot less. To give you an idea, degreasing wipe from my local car accessory store is £3.75 per litre, while Panel wipe is £4.50 for 5 litres and its exactly the same stuff. As they say every little helps. Take care Mate

    I know this is a “budget build”, but I’d recommend spending another $60 on a knockoff LED “day-maker” headlight. I put one a on my 74’ Honda CB550 and it is so much brighter and safer riding at night. You can use the existing housing with the new lamp and it is pretty much plug and play. The halogen just wasn’t cutting it for me. The bike looks fantastic by the way.

    Loving ya vid yet again. Looks great. A bit of silicon spray on thd wrap will keep it white if you want it to stay clean. The end is in sight mate. Congrats. Looking forward to the next couple of vids as you finish it! 🙂

    Hi Mark. Horns probably not dodgy should have an adjustment screw on the rear. Had the same problem with the horn on my Suzuki TC 90. Bike is looking well nice.

    Great job so far mate, looking good, go a 3 month or 6 month rego and keep it budget. Are you going to paint the wrap clamps black? And silicon spray the wrap, I think the white wrap will work great with the Saturn black.

    I am even worst than you with memorising the wiring (even with photos) .., the way I have to combat it is : I buy a roll of white electrical tape and a permanent marker , and I put a 1 inch long TAG on both end of a wire that I am about to seperate and mark then both 'A; the the next ' , then 'C' etc 'B' It is easy when you see both tags marked "A" and simply join those together. PS: when I make the tag, - I actually write the letter 'A' with the permanent texta marker on the electrical tape while it's still on the roll. - I mark the 1st 'A' at the end , and a 2nd letter 'A' two inches away from the 1st letter 'A'[ , - Next I cut the tape just after the 2nd letter 'A' (to end up with a 2 inch long length , with the letter A written at both ends ..., - then I place the cable end that I just separated on the halfway point (on the sticky side) and fold the two ends to each other. - I repeat this procedure for the other end of the seperated cable.
