My 349 replacement seat arrived today from Jared Bates of http://www.southwestmontesa.com
Thanks jared, so looks like I can get back to the rebuild after I clean up the shed and put a heap of shit back in the lounge room.
Yes your correct there are handles missing from those reels I have sent them and other parts away to be rechromed as this particular reel is no longer available new and parts are pretty scarce can't understand Alvey discontinuing this particular reel.

OK, I put the oil in fitted a speedo and fitted the seat it was a bugger and worse than the first one but I fixed it tomorrow I fit the tank up bit of a bugger finding nuts for the hold down strap brackets it might even see some daylight and get a kick in the guts once I go over it to see if I forgot anything 12 years not the quickest resto but worth it. I hope it runs???? :| :montesa

It starter first kick after I switched it on, It had a oil leak but I tightened a nut a bit and it doesn't seem to leak any more but the biggest dissappointment is that it sounds just like a Yamaha think I better find some rubbers for thr air fins now I gotta tune it god help the poor bike I could never tune them when I was young lets see if I've learnt anything over the years.

The distressed look on my face was from handing my camera to the Mrs to take the photo.
