Mainly just put it all back together for now, I've just been tarting it up a bit as i only bought it as a cheap hack.
I've stripped all the front end to clean it up and repaint some of the rustier/scabbier bits like the front of the engine and the fork legs. The previous owner seems to have been scared of maintaining or even washing it!
Luckily I've not been without a bike while I've been doing this so haven't had to rush it. I could have ridden it as it was but my OCDs kicked in a bit so there's been a fair bit of cleaning, sanding, shot blasting, polishing and painting going on
