staying true to TC approach to things , it's the only way  ;D

but thankyou Ian for your very generous offer, which was also in the true TC tradition

i'll be tackling the second one over the weekend, i need the funds as i've been and gone and done it ....

ordered a couple of carbon fibre side panels for the final SRX6 build ... which is way behind schedule as frame and other stuff still not done (i made the mistake of saying 'no rush guys' ..... you think i'd have learned by by now)

81K Km is maybe why the old girl is smoking like an old tug boat!

and still puffing well after a +50thou rebore and NOS piston/rings

early days, will see what it's like after i've run it in a bit.
