I like it. And I have named it THUD, for obvious reasons. Laughing

It has one years MOT

Yeah it needs a good service, I think the carbs need balancing, and there is an elektirckery problem. Turn the lights on, and the engine dies.

At 55mph, it starts "lurching", and grumbles and will not go faster, it won't rev high in top gear. Otherwise, okay to ride.

Some more pics; I knocked part of the front wall down in the summer, sunk some chains into the concrete and lock the wheels to that.

Ahem. Moving on, I just learned that I had inherited £5,000 this morning. So, I shall probably sell these both pretty soon.
