Very artistically composed shot, that would make a great album cover.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

Is it just an illusion or does that side panel have a Made in Japan sticker on it  ;D Anyway she should be sitting on a Honda 'Dream' as there's a song relevant to it on that LP.  1973 do you reckon Steve?  .. I remember it well I was working in a mental hospital  :D

Probably due for a nut and bolt resto (like most of the rest of us Old Gits!) ;D
One day I'll have the time to restore it, not just talk and dream....

Even "also scratch zarathustra 2001" Steve? What is that?

Well spotted Ash, you can see that sticker more clearly on the original. It says "Honda. Motor Co Ltd,  Tokyo Japan" you can just make it out in the print matrix used to make the image.

Hairy, she went to live in California  ;)

Also Sprach Zarathustra is an orchestral piece by Stravinsky. It was used as a theme for the Apollo missions on TV and was one of the themes from 2001 A Space Odyssey. The early 70s version was by Deodato and was pretty good. Google it.
