Nice bike that dude. My quad was my favourite bike in the 80s- the only bike I built from new. Are you keeping it for show or will it be ridden?

That is lovely... ;)

Is that a tie wrap between the front caliper and fork ? Never seen that before....

I presume it's there to prevent the caliper moving forward when braking ?? .... genius !!!
