Hi to all members,
After 3 years of collecting parts and 8 months for the rebuilt, bike is ready.
All works done in my garage, except painting, rechroming, rezinc.
Gauges restored by Peter Horton in UK.
Carbs done By Gerben in NL.
Sticker set By Diego (REDICE) in Spain.
All of them great people!
Engine turned to pieces and rebuilt from scratch By me with the assistance from a close friend.
As you All know every restoration takes so much time, effort, money... But the feeling after is so special.
My Thanks to Julie and Graham, Who stood By my side in all restoration. They believe in me and support me in all dificult times. Gave me important tips when needed. Happy to know them and our friendship is more important now.
Last, this restoration is deticated to my close friend Vernon, Who passed away Last august... A trully british gendleman and a man that kept me in Honda family. Miss him everyday...
Regards to all
Giannis

Wow! It looks like new. Envious of your tidy workshop, it puts my untidy mess to shame.

Looks fantastic

Absolutely stunning restoration and great images. It looks like a new one!
I'm always a bit apprehensive about sending gauges overseas. They went Royal Mail International a fully tracked service. Kept an eye on their progress and reached the point were the tacking was updated 'with courier out for delivery'. The next update 'courier unable to locate address returning to sender' WTF. I then emailed l Giannis to advise and half an hour later re-checked the tracking, update again marked 'delivered' and shorty afterwards and email from Giannis to confirm he had them. Phew, apparently he had gone to the couriers depot and collected them. Not sure how he knew exactly where to go but he did and must have been there very quickly. So all was well after a bit of a panic.

I did rather expect a comment on both gauges being tag marked. Well it wasn't to identify the gauges it was to identify the two stainless mounting cups which of course are different. Easy enough to fit the wrong one on the wrong gauge and then find out when fitting the onto the bracket. I think both original cups were damaged so I sent Giannis a pair marked to assist fitting.

OMG she's gorgeous!
