That's a cracker. Well done.
One day I'll have the time to restore it, not just talk and dream....

Wow what a lovely looking restoration, you must be chuffed to bits.

It reminded me so much of my second Honda 250 until I looked at this old photo below, quite different in reality, with some common themes. Even the drive chain  has moved to the left side.

Well done that Man, Great job.
When you see the engine from side on and at waist height you realise how 'chunky' they are, almost as though they are hewn from a solid billet.
