6502 pi

Found a use for the free pi zero, a 6502 emulator - in the style of a 1980's dev board.  

I need to add some more I/O mapped to virtual memory

Three weeks in vinegar

The process is a little slow, but soaking parts in vinegar seems to remove most of the rust.  This is going to be a very long process, but its very satisfying bringing the old parts back to life after many years being covered in rust.  Once the nice weather makes an appearance then I can start painting some of the parts that are not going to be powder coated.



Nice clean piston, ready for new rings

First trip out

Short trip out to see how the new bike rides.
Very well!

New bike, new tyre

I have repaired the switch on the instrument panel and have ordered a new rear tyre. I have a couple of other tidy-up jobs to do, then we can go for a ride.
