New bike - new member!
« on: 29.08. 2011 07:05 »
Coming soon to a B Road near you - well if you live in Hampshire anyway. Not exactly original but in cracking condition and goes way better than I was expecting. Very crisp exhaust note - due with me in time for next weekend and am now praying for a bit of late summer sunshine.

She's beautiful mate,

I don't care if they're not original, they are very hard to find and either way it's still a beezer.  As long as we keep as many of them on the road as we can, more of us can enjoy them!

Cheers,
Hubie.

Congratulations, that looks like a well sorted bike, the silencers look to be the same shape as Campbells (much sought after) and would account for the nice crackle
All the best - Bill

1959 Rocket Gold Flash - blinged and tarted up  would have seizure if taken to  Tesco

Looks good. Hadn't thought of stowing my gear out back of the block when touring though ... ?
