Wow, that's great - looks more original than restored. Tell us a bit more about it. How does it ride? (Oh, welcome to the site!!! :thumbup: )

Hello H, nice to meet you. I almost bought one like that in '78, but opted for a '72. Of course I should have bought both!

This is my Sunday afternoon rider, tagged and insured. I have an 06 Concours for daily transportation.

This is a cycle I built from spares. A 72 frame with, of coarse, original paint 73 body parts. 72 Cylinders bored with wisco pistons.

Original seat has some worn spots and the foam is a little firmer than original.

It drives very well. Brake stop very well. Engine stars first or second kick and pull very well through the rpm range. I have the original signals set aside.

The other side.
