Let's look at pics any way always good to see, Maybe a bit of background as well.  I have tried to find out history of my bike but nothing from its early years has been found.

Kifer.
Bought her of ebay covered in mud leaked oil and a real basket case back in 2005.Only got it because I could not find a 750.Anyway decided total refit Guards, wheels,paint job,exhaust system etc.Engine was remarkably good did shells chains the usual.Took me ages to get the carbs right but at the end of it bloody good CB400/4.In those days DSS had most of the genuine bits.In the end it was too small for me so flogged it to a wealthy guy who owned a champagne vine yard he was going to give it to his missus as he had a 750/4 and that was the end of her.After all the layout probably made 500 quid on her but it was great fun restoring it.

Suzuki GS550
Paid 50 squid for it bought of a ex copper who FELL asleep on it .Spent next to nothing on it got it back to reasonable condition and flogged it to a french chef who is still riding it about today.

Both of these bikes have been re registered in France now after being exported here.

Hope you enjoy
Regards
Bitsa
