"I bought this bike in the Summer of 2005 off eBay, it was a bit of a wreck but still a bargain.  I stripped the frame and boxed all of the parts ready for a good clean up...

During the restoration I got sidetracked many times through family ties and work commitments but got back to it whenever I could.  I polished all the separate components and wrapped them up until the frame and forks were completed.  I peeled the old stickers off and stuck them on paper and asked a friend to prepare some reproductions as best as he could.  Once the frame was done, I added a few NOS parts and customised the bike a little and there we have it.  Original two tone grips and blue tyres were a little too perished and tatty so these have been retained but replaced with Mushrooms and generic yellow tyres for riding..."
