Seems ok under the mudguard :

And around the tube in the lower part of the mudguard :

Just done the timing adjustement. Only a few millimiters of adjusting space left. There was too much advance. I'll be changing the breakers and the condensator soon (ordered on CMSNL).

I have a car and motorcylces + my scoot (opened a topic for it) for "everyday".
It will not be ridden in rain or sleep outside. Rest assured!
It is a leisure bike for me. For strolls and old bikes swap-meets (like today : 30kms done with pleasure and a VERY good eye catcher! :o Got questionned for so much time that I almost didn't have time for my shopping!).
Not planning upon selling it...yet! Depends on my wishs and what I stumble across sometimes. :lol:

For a second or two I thought the headlamp glass said Lalique on it :lol: . Very nice bike by the way. Don't sell it.
