I think you should have one caliper on the front (LHS) and one on the rear (rhs) as per the "factory fit". Bit like an epileptic fit ........

Why do u have a jar of pickled onions on the fork leg?

Love the green, my favourite H1 colour.

When is the proposed rollout?

My Kh is a bit behind, but you have further inspired me.

The bike stand also looks interesting, I have a similar arrangement made from a converted Tv stand and I take a lot of comfort knowing that it is still able to move and is much more interesting to look at..

As you can probably tell it is far too cold to go into the garage and do a bit.

Keep up the good work

Gary C, (the other one)

The only difference between the legs normal and reversed should be the routing of the brake lines...

Very nice job you made of it Gary, but do you know those seats aren't the same?

did my 250 one, but the 750 one was much more difficult, Leightons did it for me in 1 day for £25.00, it looks groovy now. Know thy limitations...

Having had two sevenfifty seats done by Rog in Hartlepool, when it came to the S1c, I thought, 'I can do that'...

So.. after I'd made a bollox of it, I ate me words and took it to the Rog after all, who then not only had to fit the cover but sort out my bollox of it too.

I still recommend Rog, I'll not go anywhere else.
