Cool That's a different model. Mine hasn't got the central piece on the tank, the engine looks slightly different and that one has a better-looking back end... but it's got me thinking

its the eliminater 900
its the same as yours but bigger [heard that before ]
but the rear would ave bin same as yours

[Helen_86]

There were a few different types of eliminator. I've seen older versions of mine with the central piece down the tank and 3-pointed wheels. Still deciding what to do with the "duck bill" rear end of mine...

*ahem*chop it off!!*ahem*

Heard that before too...

your Bikes looking good

but is there something missing at the front

[Helen_86]

Err.......... yeah

My friend is in the process of reshaping the mudguard as it is a cheap and nasty replacement that doesn't even fit the wheel properly I'm also looking into getting a proper one, as that would look better.

The bike is also currently missing one of the exhaust heat shields, as we still need to drill out the bolt that sheared. But I haven't burnt my trouser leg yet, so it's obviously alright with just the one for now

ave you seen any pictures of one
wud it ave had a chrome mudguard on

[Helen_86]

The original mudguard will have matched the tank colour. I am looking at one on eBay at the mo, from an older model than mine. I'm just waiting for the seller to confirm that its the right size and give me an idea of P&P from America. I've also got the phone number of a breakers in London that may have one, so I'll compare prices.
