The bike has covered just over 54,000 miles and I have recently fitted new cam belts.
The bike is in stunning condition and was imported from sunny Florida in June 2010.

When we went last week, they were in the process of enlarging the seating area in the cafe – so it’s not an ideal stop at the moment, … Read the rest
