Motorbike Show ITV restoring a a Phil Read Replica CB750F2

Must say I've been sceptical about the PRR right through the series, but he was very honest about the costs at the end.

I did think it would cost more to do than it was going to be worth, and it very nearly was as he will be lucky to get the 14K he talked about (although Phil Read signing it may help). But not spending more than its worth is where I draw the line on a rebuild so I can't fault him for that.

How many people on here have got carried away with a build trying to make it the best it can be, only to find there is no way they will ever get the money back. Be honest!

Old Henry and his slightly juvenile style is strangely beginning to grow on me. I think its the honesty about the costs that swayed it.

Lets face it what else is there on TV about Classic Bikes, so it'a a 'must see' for me.

Being watching this show, good or bad I find it enjoyable. I see this is series 6, is there anyway of seeing the old ones. I tried sky box sets but only this series is on there?

Don't watch the one where he restored a 550K3

Lol. Why is that, did the brakes not stop him also?
