When i bought the bike it had been stolen and recovered so plenty of work to be done.
Things done so far.....
When i got the bike it had been dropped and was stuck in top gear so had to replace gear lever and foot rest backing plate along with the gear selector shaft.
Replaced head light with one in slightly better condition.
Replaced exhaust with a second hand one as previous owner had silencer held to collection box with putty and wire (had to weld up holes in new collection box).
Replaced ignition key as lock had been damaged when stolen.
Cleaned, scrubbed and resprayed bike.
Changed back wheel as tire was like a slick.
Most parts i have as the previous NTV I had was stripped as the plan was to make it into a trike but due to lack of time this never happened but all the parts had been stored.
Things that still need to be done...
Fork seals need to be done but going to try and wait a week or two and do bushings at the same time.
Needs to be restricted.
Oil change in drive shaft.
Try and find a cheap top box.
Going to try change indicators.
But no doubt the list will keep growing.

Gonna try to get honda seals heard a few reports of cheap ones failing.
Just replaced speedo cable as well so that's another job off the list.
