Ah, Meester Kellett, we have been expecting you.. viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2203&start=210 :lol:

Welcome to C90Club.. Lots of members in Barnsley as it 'appens. A few C200 owners on here so hopefully you can get sorted with info and possibly parts. C200s seem to be popping out of the woodwork all over at the moment!

Ross herrod? that name rings a bell for some reason did you go to darton high?

Havent't started on the engine yet only just found the right carb for it. Need to run it up and see what it sounds like, but i expect il need some bits. Just dropped my tank off for blasting today and got my hubs back from polishers so will be assembling wheels soon. I bought a spoke kit off ebay but i dont think its the right one, spokes seem too thin, i know the rears have a shoulder on them but they seem to fit better on the front hub?! are they same as c90's? anyone know where i can get a proper set?

Cheers

Haha nice one, yeah iv noticed a few popping up on't ebay, wish id have waited a few month til i bought mine, they all seem to be decent complete bikes aswell, i bought mine with a few hard to find bits missing, its been a nightmare sourcing them.
