Comes with some parts - the head, clutch cover, front winkers.... etc.

Picking it up Sunday - no idea where it's gonna be stashed - but Mrs P does actually know about this one :wink:

Not a lot for a bit - must get the Harris up and running :roll:


I've got a stash of spares so hope to swap my bestest bits around to get it sorted.... 1045cc barrels & pistons; got an 8-plug head; JMC swing arm; decent tank & tail... etc.

Would like to keep it looking fairly 1970's, so keep wheels, forks, clocks standard. I've got that old Jock Kerr 4:1 which would look good and some 28mm or 29mm carbs to choose from.

Collected the 900 this morning - and I must say - the photo's make it look better than it really is :??


The bikes now parked up on the drive under a h/duty cover....... and it'll sit there until next year :lol:
