Another Brick in the Wall - Part One

I'm glad I've already had my rant about the Post Office to other people! I'm expecting some important parcels for my project to arrive shortly. However, I'm going to wet your appetite with some more of my purchased parts and save all of the "special" parts for another post.

I have to admit the parcel I recieved last week deserves an award! Just look at the magnificent artistry and the way the rolls of tape really make you think it's a parcel.

Anyhow this parcel contained some very useful parts. Although Indian parts often get a bad name, I have to admit I am impressed with the headset. The top is such a tight fit that it doesn't even need bolts to hold it on! The other part was the GP200 forks. Seriously though, in certain areas, it is nice to see a progression in the strength.






As everyone should do, I intend to dry build the scooter prior to painting. There are a lot more bodywork/chassis parts to be purchsed some of which I have or are on my list, and some of which are in the post!

I hope to make this build as comprehensive as possible and not just skip to the built product as many do. I also hope this blog will encourage people to consider racing and as stated, I am expecting many more parts so please watch this space.
