Hi
The mag looks like it could be the original, its certainly 'period' bonus I wouldn't want to lose the data plate during the re-con

I reinstalled and timed the rebuilt mag yesterday, and started it for the first time this morning. Here is the video link:
It runs well but is loud. I'm guessing this is because it is a competition model. The brakes are great. It shifts well. The primary and gearbox leak a bit. I will need to give the bike a slow and thorough sorting.
