Great find, Alan; I'm jealous!

martijne@gmail.com makes fabulous, indistinguishable-from-OE 'Honda 450' repros; beautiful, but they're around €185 though!

Good luck with the titivating.

Cheers, its only the tank chrome panels and badges that let this bike down, they look alright from a distance, or on a photo.. will have a look at the repro badges. alan
