The tyres look great, so much better with a worn look and the engine is really coming along.

I've chosen to use braided hose to replace the plain looking brake hoses at the calipers. I bought these parts when I was doing the M23 a year or so back RM1 attached the following image(s):

Nice up grade on the hoses. I was not sure which way to go on mine so I am going to wrap them as they are shown in the book I got.

I gave the throttle link rod a spray of silver just to give some visual interest under the pipes. Also added a dab of paint to the bolts around the seal plate .RM1 attached the following image(s):

Front brake hoses on and cable ties fitted. I chose to use a mini cable tie rather than the adhesive strips.RM1 attached the following image(s):
