Just wanted to say hello. I'm a relatively new owner.......1974 MK IIA Roadster, candy apple red (hence the silly user name). Wanted one when I was 16, now 54, so it's taken a while. Having spent a few hours scrubbing her up, the old girl is in remarkable nick underneath the grime, so maybe our engineering in the 70's wasn't so bad after all. I have to say, you seem to know one heck of a lot about the bikes, but the bonus is the humour...............you read some of the funniest stuff on here !

One thing that doesn't make us laugh is the serious lack of photos in your first post.

















:mrgreen:
 
Pictures!

We need to see pictures!

Welcome aboard.

I'm in the middle of doing a paintjob in candy red on my MkIIA...it's a Roadster actually being done in Fireflake Blue (couldn't resist), and as an option for summer touring I got hold of an Interstate tank & panels, which to my eye look great in Candy Red.

Just need some time to get on with it :roll:
