Re: finally started
A2 cranks and dampers ordered and paid for, now the 2 week wait from Aus, apparently they have been rebuilt with new rods, so at 450AUD - £268 including air freight a bargain. Now to finish polishing the nose fairing, take a few, well lots of photos, chuck the AR125 back together loosely, get it off the ramp, strip off all,the body work off the KR and remove its heart for the upgrade. Maybe on the road next summer lol.

KR's looking great Doug!
Is that an Oz spec rear mudguard, with the holes for the indicators?

Re: finally started
Yes it's a cut down one , I have the full length artical but it looks nasty, I need to hole saw some plastic to fill them in, maybe I'll get round to doing it when I pull the engine to fit the A2 cranks, well that's for another year after I finish the AR125.

Why not just fit a couple of "Blind Grommets", you could pick a couple up from most electrical wholesalers.
This is what they look like (I am not suggesting that you buy a bag of a hundred).

NOVA arrived today, one step nearer, MOT next for registration and a number plate at long last, then do the cranks.
