Hi Adam and thank you. I've just got the paperwork ready for the DVLA again, hopefully it can finally get the registration number. All the lights are now working, I had to use the switch from the old headlight cowl. Take care, Jeff

Wow well done Jeff looks like all your hard work has paid off 💪👍👍👍

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Thanks very much Alan. I am going to resend the DVLA paperwork again tomorrow. Then wait for an inspection. Take care, Jeff

A bit of a tease there, Jeff, at the end. I'm glad she ran ,makes it all worth it .

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Martin, it wasn't meant to be a tease. Luckily I hadn't fully edited the video, so was able to stick it at the end. I just keep on plugging away as I can't get things like this out of my mind. Take care, Jeff

Hi Jeff, hope your well, It's running good sounds a sweet little engine. This work on the Velosolex has paid off , you got a good running bike there. Has the man hole cover set well Have a good weekend Take care

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Shaun, I hope you are well also. The COVID seems to have left the system now, still a slight runny nose and my sense of smell is coming back. Nice to smell 2 stroke exhaust again. I've just got the paperwork ready again for the DVLA, be nice if they didn't want to inspect it, but it's road worthy and I've got the lights working. The manhole cover has set nicely. Take care, Jeff

Well done Jeff what you could do with is a compression tester if there is one for motor bikes Phil in stoke😂

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Hi Phil and thank you. Luckily I do have a compression tester. I knew I lost one in the fire, but forgot I had bought another one. The compression was a little on the lower side to start with, but is now creeping up. I assume the piston and rings are starting to bed in. Take care, Jeff

Remind me not to sit next to you again Jeff, I'm now full of a cold😮‍💨

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Don't worry Dave, I had COVID, but that was 2 weeks ago. Are you sure it's not Hayfever.

[@davidkent5144]

Mines worse than COVID, think I've got man flu 🤧

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

@davidkent5144 Man flu? No that's not good. Women don't know what we have to go through. Lol
