Looks great! I'd love to see an inverted fork set on there to make it modern. Aside from that... timeless.

Sounds like a handful to sort out. Any one of those issues could be tough to track down. Hopefully the guy will part with the engine when the time comes. ;) |
Rare and beautiful. What a gem.

My complaint/criticism is that this thread is way too spotty.
We need a full on article and many more pics & vids about the adventures of these bikes. Oh, I guess and the owner too. I would sneak up at night to read/watch it..... |
it bloody keeps me awake at night counting the time and effort iv put in lol
