    Very nice, clean, good looking build. Love to know info about your oil cooler setup. The oil temp on my E model runs very high which was common on these.

      @@nikoc7478 it’s the standard top triple clamp. The original handlebar mounts have been capped off. Then it was polished. Finally a set of clip on bars were fitted. All this was over 8 years ago so a lot of it is lost in the mists of time!

      @nickoak4666 4 года назад

      Hi, sorry for the delay. The seat was modelled on a TZ750 race seat, shaped and then reproduced in carbon fibre. I didn’t make it, it was the work of a company called Spirit of the Seventies in UK. Unfortunately they are no longer in business. Sorry I can’t offer more help.
