    Hey if you're happy with the changes who really gives a rats rectum what others think. Main thing is you're out riding it.

    I thought the Stuka was called Ermintrude until I spotted the bike. I bet the Jumo in that Stuka ain't a SOHC IL4.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    When the CB400/4 came out i used to wander to the shop and just stare through the window for ages, i finally got a 76 model in late 1980.
    Rode the thing through 3 rebuilds and after 200,000 kms turned it into a better racebike (it was a weekend racer till then) .
    Powroll 455 high comp pistons
    Yoshi F1 cam
    S/S valves with 3 angle face
    Much head porting and polishing
    Yoshi valve springs and collets
    Altered ratio box from a few diff Hondas to lower the overall gearing
    Custom built 4 into 1 pipe
    CB 650 electronic ignition and coils (i hated the points failing at 14000rpm)
    Twin disc front from CB400/N
    28 mm slide carbs for Kwaka Z1000
    Lots of little bits of kit to many to list with no memory like me.
    Used to manage a 1.09 round Wanganui (old layout) and a 1.20 at Manfeild .
    Sold it to a guy that was going to put it back after a very bad crash caused by a motor blow and he just stuck it in a box and never touched it.
    The only bike i ever really regret selling.

    Paul.
