Beautiful work! Now put the chair back on!

Longer silencers work much better. I had shorties on my bike when I bought it and they were loud, but once I put Lafranconis on it, the sound was deeper, and the performance was way better, much more top end. Same small valve 950 with 30mmVHB carbs.

Thanks, yes these sound really nice. Thank you for watching

The return of silent movies.

What a beautiful machine. I wish I could have ridden her original.

[@mrsilbo6499]

Top job, Todd. That can looks like a work of art! My brother has an original Mk1 Le Mans, just recommissioned - most beautiful bike ever?

[@OVVMtoddspurrell]

I would have preferred the MK1 Le Mans but you never see them pop up for sale, and when you do they are very pricey. I got lucky finding this one cheap and not running, but I had to drive pretty far to get it. The guy had 3 offers for even more money by the time I got there but he was a man of his word and held it for me until I arrived to pick it up.

Tuffside makes very comfortable cafe seats

[@derrickmills7217]

Outstandish, perhaps make the sidecar speedy looking next? Look at the Tom Petty You Got Lucky Video...

[@OVVMtoddspurrell]

Thanks, yes I have some cool ideas for that sidecar. Should be fun to do

[@passmoppel6986]

Top, unfortunately those mufflers are not allowed in Germany, so i use old „Mistral“ on my Highpower`d LM 1000 Sidecar 😢😊

오토바이게의 포르쉐.. 이런 중고는 얼마쯤 하려나.. 또한.. 수리비는 대~ 충 얼마정도 나와요? 솜씨가 있어야 수리도 할텐데.. 외국인들은 이런거 잘하는거 보면 부럽^^ 잘 보고 갑니다 새해 복 많이 받으세요^^

[@OVVMtoddspurrell]

Thank you very much. I appreciate your nice comments. The restoration didn’t cost me very much because I did most of it myself. I have more cool plans for this bike. If you wish to see the updates subscribe to my channel. If you liked this restoration you may also like the video I made of my 1980 Yamaha RD400G 2 stroke. Thank you, Todd

Where are you from?

[@jezztech]

So, next challenge, to make the shaft drive of the bike able to drive the sidecar wheel , like BMW, or Ural, Ural even adapted 2wd drive from left side for Australian market.

[@OVVMtoddspurrell]

That’s actually a very interesting idea.
