Thanks, the 750 is stripped down to a frame now which is going to be sent away for powder coating.....got sidetracked though and bought a Laverda triple

Laverda mmmmmmm
Laverda Dave:
Oh, a RGS, the reliable Laverda (apart from the Speedo sometimes that can fail). What's it's history and milage. I've never seen a yellow one, has it been resprayed sometime in it's lifetime?
If you need any engine work etc go and visit Keith Nairn at Laverda Scozia, he's in the Glasgow(ish) area.
Honda enthusiast:
It's been rebuilt fully and resprayed yellow by a guy in the owners club. Runs nicely and it's done 52000 Kms before the nut and bolt job. It's actually an IOM bike.... everything has been done including a clock restoration by a Dutch specialist......it's seriously loud but a bit addictive! Zero in common with a Honda
I've spoken with Keith Nairn, I'm lucky he's in driving distance which i.might need. At the moment I'm looking at higher bars and am going to try a set of Tomaselli adjustables...
