Fantastic looking bike and I just love those wheels. Think you`re talking big money there ?

Grab rail is wrong too !

EU spec 900 or 1000 and worth more money than the correct rail.

Beautiful resto job John, a real credit to you to make a box of bits look that good. I also love those wheels, I'd keep them and the spokes just to be greedy.
