Just my old Sidi Vertebrae sports bike boots. I'm sticking with the red and smoke tinware. Just repainting all the black because you can't see on the vid but it's very tatty. Also rechroming the bars, exhausts and forward controls. Doing a bit each year - spread ther cash out a bit!

What a great looking trump! Used to have one (springer/hardtail/apes/drag pipes). I'd appreciate more vids. Try wrapping cotton wool on the mic, lets the bass growl through. Cheers,m8!

Cheers, thanks for the tip. Will try to do a few more vids - when it's back on the road after this winter's work - new forks, front wheel and disk, repaint all cycle parts etc. Glad you like the bike so much!

I'm a Harley guy. However I love these old Brit vertical twins. Nothing looks or sounds like them! Great bikes.

no choke fitted, so have to keep the revs up while it warms, after that it will hold idle

cheers

[plechatam]

will it idle or do you have to stay on the throttle?

FM from about 6 years ago - lightweight but a bit noisy - but what the hell does that matter on this bike ;-)
