THE OWNER PAINSTAKINGLY SOURCED OUT NEW AND N.O.S. PARTS, THEN COMPLETELY TORE DOWN THIS BIKE. THE ENGINE WAS DISSASEMBLED AND NEW BEARINGS, SEALS, GASKETS, AND RINGS WERE INSTALLED AND THEN IT WAS PAINTED. THE CARB WAS CLEANED AND GONE THROUGH.

Winter may be here but I seem to be as busier than ever, maybe the economy is finally turning around. At my last UK track day of the year I had some fun testing this little beauty. It’s a late eighties NS400 triple bored out to 475cc and it felt sweet as I zinged round the GP Arena track at Silverstone. Being stripped bare to reduce weight gives it a very respectable power to weight ratio which means it could live with 600s (on the twisty bits at least).
