Got the horn working.  It was a bad rivet to spade connection.
Seen, soldered, sorted.

Where's that 10mm socket got to?

Nice one,  I bet it sounds nice that little v-twin.

Prefer the sound of the four but it does ride nicely.

Found road test of one here

Didn't realise they put out 35bhp and not far off RD250 LC for performance  :)

Thanks for that.  I've only done 10 miles on it so I haven't got used to it yet.  I've achieved my objective of getting it OTR before the shite autumn weather so I can keep the 400four clean and dry.

I was looking on fleabay for an exhaust.
£180 ish.  The family budget won't go that far.
So I look on that wierd Japanese auction site where I got the sub frame.
Same thing, £180.
I put a bid on one that had a day to go.  It was on £27.  Next thing I know,  I've won it for  £27 😮.
Still got the P&P to pay for but I'm not in any rush so I'll pay less for surface mail.

Looks like I am picking up pone of these as well on the weekend... not in as nice condition though.
As long as it is rideable (safety check will prevail) I can put it on Historic Rego and get 60 days riding a year plus 2 Club Outings... will post some pics when I get it.

Bastards.  Kill him stone dead and stick his head on a pike to deter others.

Some people will sell their soul for £50 or less unfortunately.
