I saw something like these a couple of days ago, other versions are available.

Bike looks very nice, also sounds very good too.
The sound of these having very particular cadence/ nuance that's often commented on as a "fault" a happy one having distinct and polite rustle, mixed with smooth running and a touch of miscellaneous primary and gearbox oscillation derived characteristics. This one sounds exactly in that character, indication of good mechanical and balanced setup.
They do stand quite separately in character, a fine example of which you've got there.

Thanks for the encouragement, I'm also confident now that it's sound, it's runs well smoothly without hunting , missing or lugging with clutch basket noise... personally I love that sohc 750/4 sound as you say it's a mix of rustling top end and chains harmonics , a 70's noise that appeals. I have a set of Wirth German progressive fork springs and with those fitted and the good yss shocks on it, there's a good chance of a rewarding satisfying ride.
Time to wait for better weather and unsalted roads and get some road miles in ..a good end to eighteen months , cheers to all of you with input and help😊👍👍

Lovely job, well done. Now get it in quick it's raining. You can't beat a 750 clutch rattle in a morning.

Another great job done Hubert!
A credit to you and a lovely addition to the collection. The video never makes them sound as 'in the flesh' and I've never had a 750 but wasn't aware they did a diesel version (🤡, ok, I'll get me coat!)Joking aside, I can't wait to see it when we get the chance to meet up when the salt's all gone.
It may be a wee while yet for me though as I've just had a week in hospital and now have twin exhaust pipes (not even chromed!) from my kidneys, plus the inevitable catheter! (3 bags full sir!)
