Nice bike

Manx tank?
Goldie swept back pipe?
Overall Thruxton feel?
Continental GT bacon-slicers?

A nice combination of some disparate bits

 Niggly, I know, but I'm not at all sure about the cooling rings on the front brake.  A little ostentatious perhaps.  But otherwise gorgeous.

Love it, although those bacon slicers on the front wheel would look better in silver

Looks like the good old SR engine again...isnt it strange how the SR didnt sell very well in the 80s but ever since production stopped of the 500 in 2000  the engines have been used in so many specials etc.

It did, however, sell massively well in Germany.
