Around this time, I cleared out my loft of all the junk that had built up over the years, including three old fairings for bikes long gone and a box of bike parts I'd been given ten years ago. Most of it was of no use, except for a mismatched set of components for rearsets by the german company LSL. The mounting holes were only a couple of mm out from those of the frame, so with a bit of work I thought I could use them.

But first time for a chemistry experiment, to remove the anodising from the levers. I'd read that Caustic soda wold do the job, so I gave it a go..

The pegs are now i long way back, not sure how practical they'll be, but I can always make a new mounting plate to move them forward if needed, though I'd prefer to keep the clean look as is..

Of course this is so far the easy bit, the next step is to make agear linkage and fit a brake master cylinder..
