I used to have one of these back in 1977. The rear wheel was changed to an 18" and I put a lightweight 4 into 2 on it. Fantastic bike. Took me to the South of France and back. Wish I still had it. Smooth, fast (for it's time), quiet and comfortable. Bit like an Enfield really.

Hi Alan, ummm, I studied your photos of your bike at length and have come to a decision, there are just too many parts! My theory is that if you could have an machine with no moving parts it probably wouldn't break down, one moving part and the odds of breakdown increase considerably, etc., (have you ever heard of a pogo stick breaking down?)Thinks, a pulse jet RE m/cycle could be an idea for 2014, it would fit nicely on a Watsonian chasis.

But Roger, they are Honda parts, as such they are invincible, Honda's parts just don't break down, they require a smidgen of servicing every once in a while, but break down they do not, or at least thats what we are led to believe, i'm on my 4th Honda (if you count the Gilera with the Honda engine) not one of them has ever let me down. excellent machines.
