I am completeing my Mark 3 250 restoration just need to sort out front brake cables and tacho routing but will be ready for MOT this spring - hooray

am also doing up a poorly 350 Mark 3, but due to lack of tinware i am doing the cliche of making it into a desmo look alike. the frame has been powder coated and the colour code sourced from the italian scarmbler website, need to find a rearset with folding footrests and brake lever, does anybody know of one?
have targeted to finish this bike by April as engine runs sweetly, but will fit a 32mm dellorto PHF carb for good measure and a dunstall style pipe. i have sent the complete wheels away to TSR for vapour blasting so that i dont incur cost of dismantling and wheelbuilding, the bike will be a rider not display item so not too worried about the small shadows left.
the engine will share time with my other project a modern day interpretation of a duacti single, apologies if you have seen it before, slow progress had to redo front frame to correct head angle after mods to rear of frame to fit widecase motor into narrowcase frame, i will finish it!!
