That's an easy one, paint that bracket on the swinging arm that holds the hugger! Sorry

Consider it done.

One of today's small jobs.
Might also order a braided rear brake line too.

Nice job. I was going to say about the brake line but didn't want to be too cheeky!

As Porter had suggested, the clamp over the swingarm (in post #5, 1st pix), could maybe use a bit of a touch up. The patina look somehow distracts from the rest of the clean paint work.

Could be that you are waiting on when it would be safe enough to go out to buy more spay paint? Otherwise good work!

Today's boredom avoidance,
Panniers now stored safe and sound.
Also found some of my old reg plates off previous motors.😎🤣

Erm... those warning notices on the swing arm. Are they still there from day 1?

I like your museum.

They are indeed.

Gul yellow T5-R

I love my 2005 V70 T5 manual, it went into Shemtec the other week for some sorting.

T-5R if you don't mind🙄 🤣🤣🤣, I've not spoken to shem in a while, he mapped an 850r I had a whole back..he's a good lad👍🏻

TLPower · « **Reply #17 on:** April 10, 2020, 20:48:12 »

He is indeed rather wonderful. Mine needed a cambelt change, poly belt with pulleys and the PCV system replacing. It also had an annoying hard to cure ABS fault. I'll be honest, we'd been flat oot at work and I couldn't be arsed to do it myself. That and a knackered back...

He re-mapped it last year

I like the series 2 RS turbo. Forgive me if I'm wrong but has the bonnet had a respray?

Immingham · « **Reply #19 on:** April 10, 2020, 23:50:01 »

I would've said so, the tailgate was also slightly off colour too.
