Bit of history as requested , purchased from Classic Bikes , Brought over from the states in March ,Wichita Minneapolis Kansas to be precise , with 4-1 on missing coils & seat & needing lots of love & attention , F/no 054** , engine 11 numbers apart , 73 swinging arm & torque arm ,Correct dated rims 72 ,Clocks have been untouched as they are not like windscreen wipers & a bit of patina is nice Replica seat & pipes fitted :shock: , seat strap fitted & double disc as I like them with one :D . Pulls & runs well , just a sticking fuel tap to fettle , when I can find a good one that does`nt stick ?
