Hi KETTEL BOY thanks got two headlights with it
Paint was by Neil he does Alan Millyards bikes.
A mate of mine knows him as I was let down
By a bodyshop. So it work out well.
I see u do paint I will keep that in mind
If I do anymore. I wanted one of these
When I was young had to have a 1971 suzuki 250.
DRX 24K I wonder if its still about
