Built in the early eighties it was well known in the lower half of the north island and attracted cameras more than most...
I've just started restoring it and really keen to find any old piccies to enable me to build a couple of bits that are missing as close to original as possible
Can anyone out there help?

Paul. The bike was built by Steve Roberts in Wanganui and detailed back in wellington/hutt valley.
Not to bad a condition hasn't been running for a few years so some things are a bit stuck and missing the original handlebars and chainguard. shouldn't be too hard to restore it, just costly with all the chrome

What a score. You lucky bastard. I read a bit about the bike a while back. I thought it was made for a yank and went over to the US. All the best
