In reality noone here wanted it, was taking up a load of space, and shipping would have been a nightmare for all involved.that's a real shame, as is the loss of all those other period performance parts. I was excited to see you restore something unique and different. Stopped following this thread when I saw it was just going to be returned to another perfect correct restoration. Here in the U.S., any kind of period road racing/sport parts are virtually unobtainable. Bone stock K2 restorations?...not so much.Fair comments, SeanBarney, and ultimately I went with the most cost-effective route to recommission the bike for my use, using as many parts I already had here in stock. It's my 50th Birthday Present to myself, and I'm pleased with how it turned out.And, to be perfectly honest, don't blame you for not following - but equally couldn't care less about your expectations/choosing not to follow lol! - it's for me, not you right? I do however appreciate that everyone is entitled to an opinion :-).
