Out driving today, and in front saw an A10, very seldom. Followed it for a while until it stopped to have a chat and take a few pics.

Quite unique story, original from the region, and one owner for 40 years. Lots of great skills in restoration and modifications. Invited to join the forum.

Wow, loads of bling!

What is that chrome thing on the bottom of the crashbar?

Oil filter, also got pressure sensor + bypass system. Hopefully the owner will be here to tell about some of his work.

Too bad he doesn't keep it in better condition.  ;). Looking forward to hearing from him.

One more thing: Two helmuts? Was his wife riding with him but declined to be photographed?

That's just alloy looking paint on the barrels, right?

I'd say go CB. Looks good with the black head. Big fins too.
I was nearly fooled by silver barrels 25 years back.
Cheers
