30 years idle and it lives!

Very pleased to say that after what I suspect was at least 30 years laying idle my 450 yellow desmo is alive. All I had from the original engine was the cases and a barrel so had to source everything else.

Started second kick (no doubt helped by Electrex electronic ignition from Nigel and a new Dellorto PHBH 30AS).

Now I just have to sort seat, side covers, gauges and paint and she should be ready to hit the road again.

Thanks to those on here that have provided advice along the way.

Brilliant, another one lives!



Well done,
