Sweet! Can't believe you are doing this in the same place you did in the 80's! 

That's all kinds of RAD right there! (sorry about your mum's ankle though)

YEP, get those DX's swapped and on. You can get new end caps on eBay for ?35 if you fancy a fresh look....

This is really helpful.....although like you I figured it out without the internet!

You know what to do with the pegs  ;) but keep the gyro, I like it, it suits it....

sweet sweet ride btw

this is what I dream of finding at the Booty for ?20.....

Retrodan72:
A great start fella, not great for Mum though, hope she's ok soon.

Glad you ditched the pegs, I think you made the right decision there. I?d be inclined to bin the gyro too, in favour if a Potts Mod (hollow stem bolt), but this is all down to my own personal preference. I never ran a gyro BITD and although they do the job intended, to me, they look untidy and were more of an addition towards the late 80's, but as I said in my first post, it's entirely your choice.

Keep going and keep us updated

Great Bike and story.  Good luck with the restore.

This gives you some idea of how effective an Oxalic acid bath is ...
