Well done looney cylinders for spotting oil tank and cap combi . That is the reason the previous owner seized it up but took me a month to figure it out so just drilled a vent into the cap
The tank is a John Ayler/ pipes are higgspeed / TZ brakes £ 2800 bought and fitted and H1A weighs in at 160 kg
Gary
PS the blue H1A on Higgspeed clip is this bike [ running rich ]

,,,and that tail-piece looks a bit like an early Yamaha TD/TR racer - I know because I've seen them close up on the track, following them around on a H1, a red one at that!! :lol:

Replica TD/TR/TZ brakes are available from several sources, unfortunately H1-R brakes aren't as far as I know :(. They would be more appropriate on an H1 of course.
