Honda-SOHC

Interestingly, the combined float bowls are seperate in function, having discreet volume for each carb, but seem to be used as mounting to give structural component (later a dedicated carb "rack") along with a beam across the top of carbs to make a competent assembly.

Placement of anything PRE marketplace is, as I understand it, subject to tax and import regulation for which a temporary waiver is given, after which the item (s) have to be either removed from the country, or destroyed for disposal (being cheaper) to ultimately comply with their temporary import.

Guessing that some of these vehicles escape by someone hiding them away as they think it's too much of a waste, on a personal level, to really scrap them. Interesting that some are kept, understandable that the stories are deliberately obscured. Technically the IRS could still come for the demands of import be met, although out of time status likely to apply now. In taxman terms, they'd probably want to see it crushed 

Sounds spot on to me Nigel. Vic World was at DS 750 event and was very approachable and a totally unassuming guy, when I talked to him.

BTW I think the CB750A Hondamatic SOHC 750 had a Morse Hy-Vo primary chain.

I took my bike in today to have the oil pump seals changed and get a set of genuine Honda exhaust mounting studs fitted to replace the rust prone homemade junk currently in place.
The mechanic had to tell me he would only try so hard if any are very stubborn, lest they snap off. If that happened where would I stand though?

All he had to say was that his big buddy Liz Hurley (read his autobiography) once sat on the seat and the price would rocket. 

This celeb vehicle went for a packet

Yes it would have, sconnect th orange with white trace and light blue with white tace in the headlamp as they aint legal in UK. Just remember you need a 5/21 bulb in front indicator same as rear light

Thanks again Bryan, much appreciated.

I know it’s 101 stuff but you’re saying I need to change the current bulbs to the 5/21 when I disconnect the DLR?
