a bloke sent me an article on the 1982 maffra 4 day Enduro in victoria aus and it has a picture of my Moto Villa in it...my bike has serious race cred file is too big t0o upload

How's the build progressing JC?

i have just ordered and paid for a gold plated gearset that will allow me to look at 1. cleaning and powdercoating the cases and 2. reasembling the lower end and 3. doing the top end. i need to sandblast the barrel and head to get that sandcast look. ( i bought a chinese sandblaster...he doesnt need much rice to live on and he does a good job...polite as well)
i have found a red color that is very close to the factory color at the local powder coater so i have to ready the frame etc for that event. im struggling to work out how to do the "fasteners"as they are all allen headed bolts in black finish. prob have to buy all new ones.... i have to get ol mate the welder to fix the crack in the axle housing on the fork leg and then dress it up nice like... b4 the powder coater does his thing. got a bit to do i spose but no deadline so take a number and wait in line...

Got the sister bike in the shed for a bit...wouldnt go had spark, fuel at the carb, still a dry spark plug?? tipped it over, tickled choked, kicked like all hell, pushed in 3rd still no fith (fire in the holes)...some bright spark suggests we tip it up on the front wheel...we did,, 1 kick and it lit up...assume the reed petals were stuck from sitting for 2 years...anyone had this before

Never in my 47 years of dirt bikes!
