I thought they had a chrome chain guard.

I believe some were black,my H1b is chrome thou

I am pretty sure the ears and chain guard were gloss black on the UK H1a but I will stand to be corrected. Chrome guard on US model. UK H1a`s had points ignition not CDi.

US model
deffo Chrome. Got those little "finned" bits at front.

Headlamps Ears. Satin ,not matt. Satin. Thats awee bit shiny .
Which is like the result when I try and paint something gloss !!!

( Then again, the Factory were not adverse to chucking last year/next years parts on some bikes at the beginnig/near end of production. So if yours is a low/high numbered version of the model, anything goes !!!






b.t.w. Neither of these items will make your bike go faster........................................

B.T.W Peter,
Did you get sorted with a r/h cylinder ?

I see DK Spares have one on E Bay right now !!!

[30yrs-on]

Well Neil has the little finned bits you mention, in fact its exactly the same as my B which is chrome.

So I guess its Satin Black then ,the same as the fork ears

Yes I did get a cylinder of DK.phoned them straight after I spoke to you ,Ta

Just need a rebore ,new crank etc etc etc,........I said no more resto,s last time.

what the F#ck
