Bryanj:
In order to get the best from twin discs you need a Goldwing master cyl, one with a mirco switch for brake light for preference. As to rest headstock taper rollers yes whilst in bits; swingarm collar(the expensive bit) wears more than the bushes; unless play in whell bearings leave till there is

JustcallmeMrT:
This would be my ideal (minus the exhaust wrap)...


But thinking I'll start closer to this as it looks a bit more realistic for a first timer...

matthewmosse:
The second to me looks more practical than the first. And easier to achive as a reliable bike.

JustcallmeMrT:
That's what I was thinking.  Not sure about those nubby tires on the street though - can anyone recommend something that might still suit the style but be a bit quieter and give better performance on the road?

Green1:
Can't go wrong with metzeler tourance I have them on my Pegaso excellent tyre.
Dead quiet on road and can cope with dusty tracks.
