Managed to adopt the cut-off tail end to slide onto the rear frame tubes. Can adjust the depth of the tail light to desired position.

Already modified rear plastic fairing got a further cut out at the inside to allow the new position of the tail light.
Got a modern front master brake cylinder (5/8″) with external fluid container.
It is a large round one, similar to the stock one in 1977. We will see if I keep it.

Removed the cover and the “mouse-treated” foam rubber padding from the metal seat plate. This allows me to optimise the form/shape of the seat plate.

Found a nice aluminium chain guard of a Zephyr model. Front mounting hole matches perfectly, for the rear a new holder needs to be made.

Cheers, Michael
