Next project

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Good luck with the next restoration project!

We hope to visit sometime in Feb '24 to inspect progress. :)

T1,
There was a Yamaha Virago 250 V twin, complete with a towbar and a trailer, in the workshop, the fire didn't do it a lot of good, the trailer was outside but the plastic top/body part has melted ..... my hips, knees and licence won't tolerate me having another big, so if anyone wants the trailer, it's yours ....
Pics please Terry?
A picture of the trailer? The Virago is probably part of a large pile of scrap metal somewhere in Adelaide, so not particularly photogenic so to speak ;) :lol: Next time I'm up at the yard I'll take a few photos of the melted top trailer if that was what you were after ....

Well. Not quite the RD350 but thought I should do this one first. Bought it years ago secondhand to use on the fruit block. Very handy as a runaround checking sprinklers and used it a lot laying and removing drip line when I grew vegies. Was going to put a small boomspray on it to kill the coltrop ( prickly little creeping weeds) But of course it wouldn't go until I did some work on it and one thing lead to another. Interesting thing. The plastic was very dirty and oxidized. Good old google told me a heat gun would restore it so I cleaned and scrubbed it and sure enough the heat gun took it back to its bright blue.

Looks good John.
I had one similar, had to watch your heels from the rear tyre.
