First run since 1980ish

From a box of parts to a running bike. Took me just over two years but was a fantastic feeling to finally get the ‘old girl' back on the road. Was slightly worried when she cut out at a junction, but after pushing her into a nearby lay-by to check everything over, I think it was more rider error than anything mechanical and she started no problem afterwards. Thanks to the spares dept. and the articles posted here and there; they are a great help to a novice like me. Everything I could keep original I have, although most chrome was peeling off it doesn't look bad in the photo!
