You don`t go pushing £10,000 of motorbike if it ain`t yours, it was a case of making the best of a bad situation.:D

Nice bike! Doesn't the flagpole on the handle bars make it a little top heavy? ;-)a

Nice Beeza, you don't see too many of those still on the road anymore. I remember those separate gearboxes. Those were the days. It looks correct to me too. Though I am not sure about the cafe style handlebars and bar-end mirror.

Tell me about it. A friend had the BSA Lightning in 650 cc's, and I had a 67 Triumph 650 Bonneville. I can tell you that the two of them harmonizing through megaphones at around 90 MPH on the freeway was a delightful crescendo. :D
