Mono shock set up doesn't suit it at all. Apart from that, loverly  ;)

+1 on that, IMO twin shock would be the way to go. I think I`d like a solo seat with a hump on it too (conti gt type) Another nice find Michael, cheers!  ;)

Short and sweet! Thanks for sharing. What's the history with the use of pipe wrap? I don't remember ever seeing it  as a yoof in the 80's.

Good question Matt, the only time I ever remember seeing it was on a drag bike down at the esholt sprint way back in the early 80's if memory serves. Seems to be the thing to do to any custom bike nowadays tho. Probably to cover up rusty down pipes with most of them I'd guess  ;) ;) :) :)
