So She is running excptionally well, Love this bike, especially compared to the K0 from hell i am STILL busy with years later
Met up with a Mate with a 72


And i would now call her completed... but of course they are never done.... The X is back on the bench after rebuild 8 years ago because it now needed a refresh...and so it continues
