thanks, will do. I cleaned the mechanism and that helped a little. Cable was a bigger job so I gave it a skip :oops:

Up and running, 4th gear grate is still there with new oil. New clutch feels very good, front wheel chirp when pulling off easy.

The week before driftz came to visit i started the reg process. Going to take 2months to get it on plates.

Brakes were really bad even after changing the brake fluid. Had spare EBC yellow stuff fronts and a world of difference, just need to get rears. Think the pads in there were just shot after 10 years of standing in an export yard.

For the next 2 months while waiting for the plates i am going to start fixing all the small problems.
