Now that is just being greedy Lordmoonpie!  One per customer please!  :D


edit:  I don't think the bike on ebay is his.  I'm implying that if he already has one, that owning two would just be conspicuous consumption.  ;)

It is a proven fact that modifying a SOHC Honda in any way will bring on the apocalypse.

well  i must admit you do turn out a nice bike simon , ebay might not be the best place to sell it though , have you tried the classic club web site ?  or even better take it to a couple of meetings and stick it by the burger van with a price on it

Thanks Simon - that's my undoing to be honest, I make them so nice I daren't push it when racing them for fear of bashing them up! I need to buy myself a ratty old race bike that goes and stops and looks pants and then, just race it LOL!

Tried the classic club - think it has the wrong badge on the tank for them to be interested....I'll persevere though.

Fastbroshi - will see what I can do over the coming week and post a pic - it's nothing fancy, just two mount points welded onto the swingarm, one at an angle (original) and one new one that puts the shocks almost vertical - adjustable ride height from the 70s!
