Well done Glen......good to have you back. :beer:
This nation wasn't given to our forefathers, it was wrought over a 1000 years of bloody war and the efforts of those who came before.
Let it not be us who bears the sin, of giving it away to the enemy within.

Well Glenn as a relative newbie I have just sat and read all 34 pages in one go and am gobsmacked as others have said with your skill and patience. :respek:
I have had 4 wings over the years starting with a brand new 1200 Aspencade in'89.
Followed by two 15's which I loved the second in Teal blue,a colour that everyone loved.
More recently had an 18,black and added loads of chrome.
However always did my own maintenance but used to curse even getting to the air filter on wings,removing plastics.You must KNOW every nut bolt washer and where it goes inside out.
Times in your pics you had it apart and back together.
All I can say is it's unique and all your own work,not many can say that,total :respek:
Well done man.
