Nice Bike. I noticed that you have the standard choke lever for what apperas to be a Mikuni carb? How does that work.

Nice Bike...
Is the paint on the side covers original?

Do you know the paint color/code?


Cheers

guys

paint is not original - just a generic PPG smoked gray, don't remember the code - don't really like it much with alloy tank and doing another set in jaguar's version of BRG (real dark, almost blk)

tommaselli adjustable bars - love em
