Gear lever is original but 'padded' with a bit of garden hose (makes a surprising difference), Exhaust and 'can' yes, front mudguard is original but repaired with some mini wing, self tapping screws and black paint, indicators yes , seat yes (GN250), handlebars yes. Year is 1976.. probably. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

Aww, shucks.. Thanks, the chambers are home made by me, look better in the photos TBH.. Still not sure if they make any differnce either plus or minus. I think it's a bit down on power (crank seals?) as it was stood for 14 years before I gt hold of iit but it still pulls 80.. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

Well they do/did but I had to shove some dB killer tabs up the stingers cos the neighbours started to look unhappy and I think that has also killed the performance..
It was difficulty to tell at first as I was running in a rebore but after a few hundred mile I went WOT the other and it only just chuffed up to 65, I put the old standard exhausts back on (inc baffles but w/o wadding - they never had any) and she pulls like a train again. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750
