We referred to the Superdreams as wet dreams.  Didn't see a lot of dreams.

What's the front mudguard on the 400/4 from? It's certainly not original.
Looks a bit dodgy to me .... so in keeping with the rest of the programme ....

Looks like a CB250 K0->K3 to me, with the stays inside the mudguard. Centre brace not the same though so must be a bodge up. His old mate George Cole passed away recently.
