For someone that knew nothing about these bikes, I think that is very nice. Well done mate

Looking great Roger ... you have certainly learned a lot after initially posting on here. Did the coil repair work out OK for you?

Well done Mr T, cafe racers are not my thing, but I totally appreciate the planning and work that has gone into it. So glad you found the source of the starting problem, just goes to prove not to assume because a part is new that it cannot be faulty.
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

Great individualistic features. Like the pipes, switches, headlamp mounts. The seat is almost invisible, how was it on your longest ride so far? Makes some of us look a bit samey trying to recreate 1974. But just shows we are all sorts, but love bikes.

Well done Mr T.  Those pipes are a real work of art.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

Excellent job.
Could see it winning a trophy in a custom bike show.
