    Apply heat barrier tape to the inside of the left number plate, the pipe likes to burn a hole right before it enters the silencer.

    Love the patina. Perhaps a new seat cover, get her running build the engine internals as new and leave the rest as is make a great ride and upset a few riders of modern machinery with a sh*tty looking bike :thumbsup:
