no direct connection TBH, am just a reader of Classic Bike magazine digital edition.... saw it there

We had one dutch member on here who built a 500 with a davis frame, regretfully his son crashed heavily, he and bike never raced again.

BTW, seen that  Davies motorsports switched to yamaha TX500 twins for classic racing, a sort of low cost Paton....  son not sure they are going ot contunue doing honda parts
