I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Really impressed by the speed of this as I only paid slow freight cost. ;)

I bought some stuff out of Dave Silvers a while ago and the same day I bought a couple of parts from Victoria, about 20hrs drive away, the stuff from England arrived 3 days earlier than the stuff from within Australia :-\
