Thank you sir.
The problem with stuff like this is as you get further on the decisions become more difficult as you get paranoid you'll ruin it over some minor detail :bigeek:

In their day a proper giant killer, and such a laugh to ride.
I have a GPZ1100 from the same era, you can take liberties with the Power Valve that would tie the Kawasaki in knots.

Didn't know that.
That Billet stuff is lovely, I think he's the guy who owns Metmachex. That hybrid certainly belongs to him.
They're in the same area as Spondon Engineering used to be.
