      Hi David, first up great looking bike mate, it's a stunner for sure and I am just so glad that you didn't go down the cafe/brat/bobber route, which so many of these great bikes seem to be afflicted by.

      I have just bought myself a project 4K1 over here on the east coast of Oz and am looking forward to trying to get close to what you have achieved with your bike. Would it be OK if I picked your brains once in a while, as my experience is mainly with two stroke restos?

      Cheers

      I will be painting mine the same colour as yours, which is the pick of the bunch imho. My bike is rough but pretty complete and it was reasonably priced, so I have some headroom to put some money into it, which as we know, is always more that we budget for!
