That is one good looking F1 Martin. I was out for a spin this morning, just to blow the cobwebs out.

The only trouble with pictures like this is i am hunting around the workshop to see if i have parts to build one. Can only find a engine unit and carbs. Feeling sorry that i sold my Yellow one earlier this year.

Thanks everyone, thought I might have a problem at first as running rough, but switched to reserve and all OK. :D

It doesn't snow on mobiles.  I disabled it as it uses up too much processing power.

Hopefully Bitsa you can see why my bike is in the conservatory in bits, next to a nice warm radiator, radio on and kettle not far away. Mind you, the young Lurcher, Peggy, has taken a shine to one of the rubber foot pegs and keeps eyeing it up as chewing matter, and the terriers keep running off with the bloody spanners. But who cares, I'm warm and cosy  ;D ;D ;D
