Laverda Dave:
It sounds like you are making great progress Ash. A spring unveiling (or 'reveal' as our American cousins call it (and the blue paint set is 'bitchin')).
Looking forward to seeing the progress photos now the winter is closing in and shed hibernation has begun 🙂.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I like that Dave "Shed Hibernation" - (Hedgehog Mode).
It's still very mild here in Derby so I've not felt the onset of Hypothermia yet. ;D ;D ;D

Problem is I just bought another CB92 (Rare 1960 model). :-[ :-[ Just had to rescue it.
I still need to get the go-cart modded chain for the RSA and send the cam off. My mate Graham Curtis is suggesting Phil Joy Engineering.

I think you need to start something called 'Motorcycle Trust' Ash in a similar vein to the 'Dogs Trust'. A rescue centre for uncared for and unwanted rare breed Hondas 🙂.
Did you try Newman Cams in the end? I didn't know Phil Joy does cam repair, I thought he only made new cans but worth knowing if he can repair damaged cams (does he also repair rockers?).

According to Graham Curtis he had better experience with Joy over Newman but I will try both. Yes I think they repair cams not sure on rockers.
talking of dogs the CB92 is one expensive puppy. You are playing Monopoly money tactics. Like, today I had to pay £200 for a kickstart lever but I sold NOS spare kickstart shaft for £200 to fund it... ridiculous.
