Aye Steve,
My 450 was my sole means of transport from '76 - '78 when chainsaw felling/skyline contracting started and the ex- Busby Commer van and a Hillman Pimp came into my life! Admittedly the clip-ons and standard footrests did nothing for my back and it wasn't until the rear-sets were fitted that it became a bit more comfortable!
Out for a scamper (100 miles) on the SRX Mono yesterday and now it is in the workshop getting the 600Km service after initial running in. Whilst the Duke carb is getting rebuilt with ethanol resistant bits.

Rugby this afternoon, when it starts to rain! I hope the Auld Alliance is given a kicking in favour of the Scots, but would not be surprised if les grenouilles, due to their size/weight, come out victorious. Cardiff on the other hand could get very messy, Owain Glyndŵr doing a Robert the Bruce!

A Bishop's Finger to you all!

Bill
