I've only just noticed this, very nice. I always have said if I could build another Hybrid it would be a stock looking F1 or F2 with modern front and rear ends, that ticks allot of my boxes,

Thanks guys. nice comments. Bike is good to ride, a little stiff on the rear, terrible on fuel, had to replace clutch plates (dirty fingermarks everywere !!)
lost all the coolant on one blast and had a puncture on another !
But that cackle on tickover and the instant pickup on the throttle gives me
a silly smile every time !!!
