I rode my H1A to a VJMC meeting at Classic Bikes Direct in Braeside, Melbourne. I was chatting to a guy about his H1A project, and it turns out he lives in the suburb next to me. I also chatted to the Japanese owner of the Honda 400/4 (I have a 350/4). As soon as he pulled up I could tell his tappets were incorrectly set. All-in-all, a good day (free coffee & sausages)!

Best take note, if you dont mount it with the "correct" washers and hex nuts, HE will see it.

But he gets extra points very a tastily polished front guard, so we should let him off (as long as he promises to rectify it of course ;) ) Lovely looking bike, you have done well with it.

It IS the correct horn :thumbup: however, it is mounted outside the frame rather than on the innerside of the downtubes like all '69 - '71's should be :eh:
