^^ coming along nicely will look well smart when finished 8) I prefer my dynamo, my 1641 had a alternator but it was as good looking as yours.
my first picture post at last!!, here's mine, just need to fit my firetec from the group buy and tidy a little more
thanks for the kind comments - I know it won't be everyones cup of tea but it makes it all worth while to get approval from people who know their stuff !!
standard 1597 apart from the carbs / ignition / exhaust - will probably build something a little bit more exotic when funds permit!!
re-fabricated the bottom of the fan shroud and run them through the bottom in their own tube, being careful not to disturb the airflow to the heads, made up my own extra long ht leads to run the extra length needed - harder to change/ service than the standard ones but worth the effort for the de-clutter I think(??)
