                  Thanks rxfan and atulgupta230489. This was my first build and lot of lessons are learnt.It takes lot of patience and time. Lot of mixed experience both positive and negative .

                  The best part is the build is never ending process. It is still evolving.

                    Nice restoration buddy one more JAWA saved from graveyard. Just curious is the headlight reflector belong to JAWA/Yezdi, looking different.

                    Also meet lot of self proclaimed enthusiasts and quoting insane price for inferior spares. I will share the details of such people once my build is over. Here is close look of Engine .
                    This always happens especially if it is Jawa/Yezdi no wonder. We love our bike, have to face these facts!!

                      Thanks riderman . the reflector is from some Suzuki bike samurai or shougan. Mechanic broke original in process.

                              For me only the headlight reflector looks very mismatched ...

                                I have many friends which have got eagle eyes like you and point out mismatch.

                                They won't let me sleep until I put everything in Order .
