As usual Dave, fab ul ous,
 as they say on that dancing show.

Did you ride it before the build, if you haven't now? I rode my mates NC years ago. Real gem in every way.

I know its just so fast with the colour involved (Dave) but how typical of a 70's customised bike is this? http://

Bryan, you are 100% correct about red fire engines except........ airport fire engines are in the main painted yellow, this must be to make them go faster when travelling up the runway.

Dave, no no no. It stems from forces slang really. The RAF regiment is known as  Crabfat Crabs go sideways and fat is yellow!" Yellow as in chicken.  ;D
No, just a historic word spelling change I suspect.  The original was CrabFAST (assuming yellow involved).

No idea what this thing about yellow is, they paint fire engines red!
You will notice fire engines sometimes are yellow at airports. To catch the planes.

They were very slow, I had a Dream 250, it was more like a nightmare.

My CB125T was faster.
I've owned both 400/4 and 400 Superdream. Yes the twin was faster for sure. However my 400 is blue. Now if it was yellow...?

It's the only bike I've ever had where the speedo is showing 60mph when the bike is still on the stand. Incredible! ;D

Yes I'm afraid there was a duff  batch. Normally yellow ones show 3 figures on the stand 🤔😁

Looking at info on the Harrier and found this. Not loads on it specifically,  but interesting article. A few images of what the originals looked like.

I'd have one with or without the tank mod. I remember going to Mocheck back when I first started riding to look at a Harrier.
Someone on here must have one tucked away in a shed they don't want anymore.......
Come on Dave, you are the 400 build man. How about doing one?  You know you want to.

The Mocheck Harrier had a cut out modification to the fuel tank.
Was the tank cut out just a styling thing? Should have left it alone if so for me.

Kyle Ryde lives spitting distance from us in a village called Jacksdale. Never met him. Seems "a reet good yooth!" Also calm and very measured in his approach.

Read recently he did similar wizardry on an old TZ250.

He is not only quick but so rarely falls off.

Welcome. Lovely bikes all of them but the 500T takes it for me.

2 of 3 are custom. Is the 550 going that way?

Love the oil cooler and pressure gauge on that monster SS50.
