"The Central Belt of Scotland is the area of highest population density within Scotland. Depending on the definition used, it has a population of between 2.4 and 4.2 million covering an area of approximately 10,000 km2, including Greater Glasgow, Ayrshire, Falkirk, Edinburgh, Lothian and Fife. "

could not have explained it better. Scotland is a wee country and the population concentrates between Edinburgh and Glasgow basically with smaller towns north and south thereof, this being the Central Belt of scotland :)

it is going to be a long haul build ad finances allow but painting and mechanical stuff is the easy bit . finding a decent used exhaust will be almost impossible here in the UK and although KERKER is original on an ELR i would like the early style yoshimura that was used on the 900/1000A2 models. will see how it goes.

also cylinder heads that i have all have been not very well done at some point so will need work put into them or source a new one :)
