Nick’s bike
I bought this bike in 2007. It had some work on it and looked in reasonable condition and ran, but it had the wrong shaped tank on it and had been poorly painted so the paint was starting to blister. I then started to discover a lot of problems and some time after I got it the engine seized. I bought a second hand tank and had it painted, together with the mudguards in the correct 1969 colours (olympic flame and silver). I rebuilt the engine myself(replacing the clutch and alternator, bearings, seals etc), using a combination of the official workshop manual and Hughie Hancox’s DVDs as a guide.
