Interesting machine, he did it quite well..
If I were to fit a different Engine, I would put a cb400f engine in. It has been done, it was a featured bike mag article back in the 80s. what I can't clearly remember was, if the adaptor cradle worked without frame mods...mini CB900F look...

I suppose theres two schools of thought on this (possibly made worse by some ebay sellers, the type who try and blame you the buyer) a younger me would have cursed and sworn and left negative feedback. a (only slightly) more rational me emailed the seller and explained the situation, Daz at DK Motorcycles (twowheelspares) has been really helpful and offered me a replacement lower casing that looks spot on. I'll let you know more when it arrives

All sorted, daz at dk spares supplied this bottom case as a replacement, getting the iron rings out might be fun though...  |
