Any time Rod. You know those dumb old guys on Facebook probably don't even have springs on their rear brake light switches.

I'll probably have to go through a tech Inspection for street registration, so everything will be working! (Though in South Australia I could nearly re-register it from 35 Y.O. rego. papers..... :think: !!) Different frame and Engine numbers, but, hey, same axe!! :lol:

Chris, that made me laugh. I liked the "same axe" comment too, Rod. Just remember to put your VIN sticker on the head tube right next to the grease fitting.

No VIN stickers in Aus. 1972, Jim, and the tapered rollers will look after themselves!! :lol: A new zerk on the swing-arm tho!
