Morning Everyone

Always Nice way to end the month off with a final update on CBRTIM.

This month we have been blessed with a few updates !

As Kev has become more familiar with our vision and how he can achieve it.
I must admit to it being very hard to remain so remote from the build !!
A lot of it is down to my health and some down to Kev (wanting to work alone on CBRTIM)

As once we have discussed our ideas and settled to what we are looking for, he works quicker without any interference from me.

Something I am having to comes to terms with Just Like Maz has had to do !

Today, off to see Kev & CBRTIM

 

Pic above - Tiger & Jasmin on Timothy's Bed.

Just over an hour later and we are at Kev's Workshop and we start by seat and floorboard fitting out.

As always Before I head up to Kev's Workshop,

He is after bits, and often they have been buried in the workshop !

So as I find them, I put them together, on The Bike Bench till it is SOLD ( Just need to get it empty and take apart and clean and oil all moving parts)

and then we can load up the transit with them.

Just as normally, I will be bringing some items, back with us, that are not required at this stage !!

 

The Bike Bench, is a handy place for me to sort thru the boxes,

so I take as much as Kev needs & anything, I think he may need

One of CBRTIM'S Side Panniers !!

Will load up with smaller and fragile items :) :)

And the other Side Pannier

On a custom ???

All will be revealed later on

Found my back rest !!

This will make all the difference to me when we start the longer distances and riding daily...

, I like to have them in boxes for taking upto Kev's usually NOT FULL

So we can move stuff around and then I can leave boxes with parts in for Kev, or if they gave gone to far - throw them out.

Metal for 2nd petrol tank !!

This has gone thru several re designs, but I think we have now settled on a design and location on CBRTIM.

I am sure that Maz will be involved in discussing this before we actually start to build it.....

 

Finally found one of the manuals !

Ok this one is not for the Big One, but 99% of info is correct.

But for now it will help Kev, for the information he needs.

Still searching for the original Honda Manuals

More bits possibly for CBRTIM.

Time for fitting out for floor boards

Kev, he soon found out just how limited movement I have, but he came up with some good ideas

No Pic, But Lynne was soon seated as well and this was when you could tell the

hardwork Maz n Me had put in as with Side Pannier added, there was plenty

of clearance

 

We had removed the silencers before this pic was taken,

but Just shows how far the Build has progressed this year

Mocking up time, trying to find were my legs are most comfortable

Kev's measuring us up, several times

to make sure measurements are correct....

and everything just falls into place

Now ready for the Floor board frame work

to begin.

 

Floor Boards Details marked on the floor 

Few more mixed bits ready to go with us.

Huge thanks to Young Michael & Lynne for loading up the transit for me
