'Orrible.l !
Reminds of a word Clint Eastwood used in "Hamburger Hill" or some similar film when the General asked what he thought.
A "cluster...k sir; a goddam cluster fu. ." !!
Just my opinion.

I like it...it's different and looks like it's been built to a good standard.

I personally think it is great, stumbled across it while on google.

There is a lot of work there deciding where to cut and shut let alone shortening cables etc and all the details.

Prob just a show scooter, but would be popular on any club stand?

Having been a hot rodder in the 70/80's it works for me, but a shame a Series 2 has gone, but in the 70's I thought nothing of cutting up a 1937 Y Type Ford!

I used to spend all day in Breakers yards ripping out the walnut dashboards and instrument consoles of Mk2 Jaguars for the switches and gauges to put into my Ford Anglia or whatever . :roll:
Mk2 jags were piled 3x high everywhere and worthless ....imagine that !

Me too I'm afraid, when scrap yards were there for climbing all over, propper days.

My fav were switches from Riley 1.5's with the chrome ring on the pull switches.

Tut tut! :D
