Now do I polish the hub or leave it the original satin
vapour blast is perfect for that

I’ve been waiting for my rear shocks to be rebuilt as the shaft of one was bent and wore the piston on one side. I have no doubt that it will be a good job but I have been waiting 2 years and 7 months so far .
I could not get the correct 172 aluminium mud guards as many suppliers think the wheels are the same size as a Cota 123, but they are actually the same as a 247, so I have to adapt a set of 247 guards to it. At least they match the diameter of the wheels
I’m yet to have the front forks tubes rechromed and bushes fitted to the bottom legs as they have worn badly. No bushes are originally fitted so the aluminium legs wear out
I’m waiting to see if I have to sell a kidney to get my shocks back before I send off the forks (any recommendations ?)
I have all the electrics and speedo as I intend to put it on historic plates.
