So I am just cleaning house at the end of the year, and came across this, it's the reason we all are here! Had a NEW '70 red, but I always felt I got the lesser box of candy....... (till the H2 came along of course!) Nice picture, I wonder if R.B. can find anything? (might be his!!) :) Image

Yes letters are too small just have a look at my 69 H1 on which tank has still genuine paint.

Sadly, the image is too small with lousy resolution so I can't see much at all . . .. Maybe the brake clevis pin . . .but that's about it :cry:

It IS nicely done, just a couple of minor nit-picks. The selling price is subjective, they are worth what you can get for them! Man, could they make those U.K. number plates any bigger!! (guess it is a period plate). We used to have those funny "tax" discs too, got a pic. of my new H2 with one of those perched up on the hi-rise handlebars, didn't last long!!

.... still the best looking H1, and a fitting pre-cursor to the Whole Triples Experience. :thumbup:
