TS400 project

[itsnotateapot]

I picked this up a couple of months ago a 1974 ts400, it was on a day time only mot so it had no lights or indicators, anyhow I got it stripped down and started the tidy up. A few pictures of how I got it.

This is the stage it is at now, frame powder coated loads of re zincing all wiring done and all the paintwork done, all paint done with rattle can. Just waiting for the few bits that went for chroming and it should be done

Really good result, and rattle can, you say? looks fantastic!

For some reason the whole trail/scrambles looky likey thing never appealed to me back in the day but I must admit that does look nice. Well done

From the side, the engine has a similar look to the 500 and looks like it means business.

Cheers john, I have got the indicators.
Did you notice the tyres, I have gone for the adventure bike tyres instead of the nobbly type as I don't think I will be doing any off roading.
