Runs well enough, spent yesterday afternoon running the children up and down the track at the side of my house.  Looks rather rough though, rougher than I expected.  Time for the wire brush, solvent, and hammerite.

Everything does seem to work though so satisfied, rather than ecstatic.

If it works out you may see me at the Dragon on it in 2011.

When did you see my newly hammerited  (red oxide and silver) Fourtrak ?

The Zed did well today.  The rust is just surface rust and the clutch sounds better once I had swapped out the gearbox oil - very very sludgey and full of air bubbles.  Still got clutcvh drag though so off it comes when I have a minute - plenty of spare whole clutches.
