Not a problem bud. I always enjoy these little challenges - they help keep the blood flowing! Image

Of course it had the last word. The RH perch mirror 'hole' s 8mm, unlike the left one at 10mm. The mirrors of course are both 10mm (fine thread), but I have a drill and correct thread cutting tap, so t'will be sorted when the frost and snow bugger off. The little git.

Hi Alan,
Love the little Invader I had one a 1968 one painted decals on tank, blue and silver, much like yours. It was my fourth bike, the first being a knackered old JAP Speedway bike, I rode #7 for Oxford speedway for a couple of years, blew it up big time one night.
I then got a BSA BANTAM 175 had that a couple of years, and then misguidedly brought a BSA DBD 500 GOLD STAR. big mistake, I recconded because I'd had a speedway bike I could handle the Goldie..no way it was to much on public roads, so I did a trade in for my first Suzuki, the Invader, a real nice little bike in all respects. I think I did 35000 on it before trading it for s 1972 T500J which got traded for the kettle in 76. See my earlier post 150,000 mile Kettle
Love the horse. Brilliant.
John

Yes, a 2 stroke horse is perfect! I call him 'Clippety' as he doesn't 'clop'!

I've got 2 Invaders - a T200 (waiting for DVLA to send reg docs) and a TC200. Roll on warm weather.....

No, not had a message. If you click on my name under the horsey avatar, you can PM me from there.

He doesn't poo as he doesn't eat much!
