My Souvenir from Mid Ohio

Finally got time to get in the Garage today after I collected the H2B that I bought at Mid Ohio this year with the help of Rick, Malc and Al, cheers guy's what a trip what a result.
I spent a few hours given it a wipe over and clean up as it had been stood up since 1978, it was sold as a non runner so I spent some time tinkering as well and stuck an old battery on it and hey presto it breathed life again I was so happy . It's in original condition and very low milage. let me know what you think of it

Thanks you lot for all the great comments, I have a good camera so the photo's do make it look a lot better than it is but I am going to keep it as unrestored because I like it just that way :smt023

I took it for it's first ride out in 34 years today for the MOT but on the way the trottle kept sticking open and it took off like a bullet

when I got there I took the air cleaner rubber off and opened the air box only to find an Old mouse nest and the old original foam filter had rotted and broken down to dust which was being sucked into the carbs making the slides stick, (the only part I forgot to check or clean

) I cleaned it all out and put some new foam in so now its running sweet and passed the MOT so all ready to register
