Good luck with it Ian.

Is there a book on how long this one will be with you yet?

Not yet Rich will keep you posted.

Big thanks to Hobbo for taking me to collect her today in his van. Here are a couple of pictures just as she is now. i will sort a couple of bits out this week but on the whole she will stay as she is until Winter. Very happy with her and the price paid.

I spoke to a few people Mikey before buying one and they all said the bikes were very reliable and easy to ride.

I'll have mine together soon, just doing the wiring at the minute, it has the WM replica treatment! lol




Are you restoring or chopping it up Padders? I have loads of bits here at the minute that will prob be going onto ebay in a couple of months, your bike looks pretty complete though
