my dad has had that for about 20 years. lots of others have come and gone but thats remained.

sounds great on start up. i've never ridden it myself (couldn't live wi mesen if owt happend to it).

i've never seen another 1000s on the road, EVER! which in itself is way cool.

We love ours, original 76 mk1 le mans... wonder how my old man got me into big twins... 

They're a hoot to ride though, for the narrow tyres they go round the corners like they're on rails. Just for the love of god don't let off the throttle mid bend, or just before the bend for fear it'll stand bolt upright.
Fu*ked sprag? If you need a hand in Liverpool give me a shout (tools / knowledge)
