Hi Dave. I found your video purely by chance and watched it all the way through. You see I live in Newcastle under Lyme now, but lived in Leiston for many Years. 1968 to 2017 actually. and you actually rode past two of the houses I used to live in! I also knew all the roads you were riding on of course and my favourite road to ride on my 850 Norton commando back then was the road from Leiston to Orford Via Snape. I have a picture of my commando parked on Orford quay on the side of my fridge at this very moment.

Bought bits for my 750/4, Vfr400f and NC24 from there over the years. I remember phoning up Revetts asking how much a cam shaft was for a 750/4 F2 sohc and they quoted £350, got one from dave Silver for £85, he used to buy up bankrupt Honda stock. I believe he used to live in Wickham when he started.
