It's a vibrator.

Well maintained the bike is not a bad choice, but you need to know the weak points.

Thanks for your comment.

The Smith-type gauge's design is originated in GB.

Since original carbs did not work well, I changed to the vm34.

The VM carbs do not make a drastic change.

However, they work well (^.^)v.

Although it's your wrong side, but it's a correct side in our country.

have you ever ran this bike to its top speed and if so what was it???

[sartoriusrock]

has the vm34 carb affected your performance at all?

Beautiful bike, video, and countryside! It is great to get the driving perspective for "keeping to the left or 'proper' (as the British say) side" of the road. The guages, I assume, read right to left as opposed to left to right due to "right hand drive" specifications of the country of sale?

i dont know the word for it but where you read your kmph???never seen that! its like upside down..

[touge242]

so I'm wondering. how bad of an idea is this as a first bike?

Did someone say "chop it"? Please,please don't! Much too nice to be molested. Looks and sounds beautiful just as is.
