Well a momentous weekend on the UK K1 project which has finally come to completion after 18 months.
Got to say it has been a pleasure working on it bringing a basket case back to life and hopefully keeping another one alive for many more years.
I would like to thank everyone for their help especially Graham and Julie as these things would be much harder without the expert advice which is available on this site probably involving building things up then redoing it a second time.
The garage is now well and truly full and something will have to go before I can start another project.

From this

Looks fantastic Paul and a real credit to you. A very difficult project but just shows what perseverance, hard work and a 3rd Mortgage can achieve 😀😀😀. Trig has your next project already lined up for you 😭😭😭 A rare bike and one that you should be very proud to own. Great work 👍👍👍

Wow,  fabulous bike for all that hard work.

I know everyone has their favourite size of 4 cylinder Honda,  but with these 750 looking so well finished you can see completely why they made such a huge impact on motorcycling.

Superb.

Well done Paul, excellent work and a fantastic finish. 18 months from start to finish is a very impressive timescale considering what you started with.
Have you given it a good thrashing yet :o?
