Red is my German Low Power 20k miles - All original and not rebuilt - and that's GENUINE not Ebay
Blue is full power UK spec 43k miles - Full restore

Both bikes are very nice, but the blue one looks spot on, most jealous Sir Pete, a 400 would be most welcome, alas my motorcycle garage is full.

Lord Beer understands your desires, I myself would love to have one of these back in thy life  Had one when I was 17 and completely trashed it over the next 4 years, what a waste, worth a fortune now, this and a knackered engine is all I left, sniff sniff šŖ  |

Indeed, good call Prince Comstar, while we're on the subject if any fne member has a 400 and 250, a side by side review would be most interesting having never ridden the 400 myself. |

Just to keep you up to date
Attempted to run the test last Saturday but SME's carbs over flowed again
Being a tight git (been taking lessons from DFS) I had a look around - Genuine Honda - Silly prices - Pattern ones from Silvers Ā£9 each plus the normal postage
I bought 4 from China for Ā£9 delivered but will take 3 weeks
Made a call the Silvers ones would probably originated in China
Its times like this I rejoice that I swapped the float bowl screws for Hex heads
