FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS Nice bike! Seems to be restored to original 1955 specs. The horn is the only thing I can point out. Cardboard under bike looks relatively spotless :-)

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS tank and wheels painted the correct shade for the year. Is that a suppressor plug cap I see? Plugs leads should be routed between the inlet rocker covers, and a length of rubber tube over the bare front brake cable. (You did ask!)

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS Great restoration to original 1955 specs including correct Red paintwork, except for non-standard Wipac pattern horn. Plug leads should feed through rocker boxes to plugs. Rear brake lead could look better neatly clipped to frame. But hey, I’d love it. Have to live with my memories of mine at my age!
