It looks amazing for a bike that's over forty years old! Cheers. Bruce.

Peter, whats the point. Their is no point. Its just ones enthusiasm for something odd and different, why do we ride the bikes we do?. We are used to getting there slowly, the Dorset diesel gets their even slower, but on less fuel(if that counts).
