Hi, When rod dropped the Lc2 off at me last week he had a second bike in the trailer he had just picked up. Was on ebay for £2350. Not every ones cup of tea but here it is  Rod not up to speed with photobucket so said I'd put it up. He named the pic "Sh1t looking LC" . Sure some will agree. He now has a dilemma, bike is an import but properly UK registered so that should not matter but it matching numbers, unrestored original finish and excellent condition. Fairing is made specifically for Lc so nothing hacked or changed. I say put body work back original and fit standard pipes ( The Allspeeds are genuine and mint but seem to be YPVS) and fit a mph speedo and it would be worth a lot more. If he wants a Yamham then a non matching numbers or a 4L1 should be bought for this which would give the bodywork and speedo. Opinions please as he is struggling Also his other bikes  Yes that is an RD5 in the background    And finally how more Scottish can you get  Steve |

Yeah the GS brings back memories for me, hot summer days and tins of iron brew! The 200's beautiful. As for the Homm Yam fiberglass, Its probably quite rare (with good reason) but in no way the worst! keep it stored away somewhere and put it on fleapay in 10yrs time. But whatever he does he'll still have a cracking 350 which is better than putting your money in an equitable life pension!! Steve.

Nothing wrong with being powered by pies, chips and beer Mr Webster!!! A balanced diet is ok ( 1lb of pie to 1lb chips)

It's going back as a white 2 stripe as it should be. Lucky git managed to get a NOS decal kit for it and a set of unrashed pipes. Steve |
