Aye Michael,

Link: salvaged-sr-yamaha-sr500

Not sure about the 'fat' tyres, lack of clart guards, or the headlight pointing at the bats. But that is me being picky.  ;)  Nice bit of over braked kit.

Good health, Bill

Yes that’s the one Bill. Thanks for the link. Oh and by the third photo the headlight has miraculously got itself into the correct position 🤪🤣🤣
Cheers, Michael

Yes, nice one Michael. I've seen others with the headlight tilted back and assumed they prefer the lines running parallel to the forks for the photo? I would also prefer a single disc upfront or a TLS and matching drum at the rear.

love all of it... apart from that headlight, it's too small for the rest of the bike .... imho .... personal choice
