Very nice. Those Cibie lights are good, I have one on mine and a spare.Since I got the spare one they seem to be getting VERY expensive.

A 1927 Norton 18, a 1931 Cammy, both need minor work to finish, just taken delivery of a Magni Sfida 1100 and have spent best part of a day swapping pilot jets in a modern PHBL 24mm carb on my Mondial 175 to get it running right. No chance of a plug chop at the moment to get the main jetting sorted though. Figuring the engine size is half of a 3 1/2 has helped with ballpark jetting though.

It's a good thing you aren't closer or I would have another one in my garage. Pretty bike and I bet it would cost double to duplicate.
