Very nice work. You have all the original details covered. I believe that the front brake cable should be threaded down the inside of the fork cover but otherwise looks 100%.

Cheers.

VERY Nice Job!!! Whitewalls look nice too! I imagine those are the Cokers?

Thanks for the comments garncarz I will look into altering the cable over the winter period.. And it rides like a dream very happy with it.
The whitewalls Jim were purchased as plain tires and sent to a vehicle whitewalling company here in the UK. The guy who owns the company did this as a one off for me as he doesn't normally do motorcycle tires.

Hi garncarz, just to quiz you on the point you made regarding the route of the front brake cable.
On viewing pictures of other 305's it seems as though the routing is the same as mine.
Anyone else have any suggestions regarding this point.

garncarz is correct, it goes inside the fork cover
