Ok. So finally got around to collecting the big ol girl.
Was a right pain in the arse to get out, seized steering head bearings didn't help!
Apart from some rust in one of the cans and some superficial rust on some other parts she seems in pretty good nick under all the dust. Front MC is also siezed and needs rebuild/replacement.
Need to get a new battery, fresh oil and I'll try getting her to fire. New rubber and she shouldn't need too much more for a RWC..... HOPEFULLY!
Planning on taking off the La Parisienne full touring fairing and the panniers/rack, givinf her the nude treatment.
Here's a couple of pics.
