Newbie from Orkney

Post by Billy T »

Joined the club last Saturday at Stafford after some pressure from quivals189 (Les).

I had a few 250s a 400 and a 500 back in the day and have now got this lovely 400 restored by Les for me 2 years ago. Some of you may have seen photos of the bike before on the KH and S Series Forum.
