Been in crash and had been stored under a leaking tarp for 3 years, Do you know what the little cams that open and close the valves cost to reground and hard chromed? The sad part was when it was done it was still a heavy slow bike with no brakes.

That would nice Firko, One of my C&B mates has a Vincent works bike 1 of only 25 made and two were lost in fire. Sadly it sits under a tarp in a corner of his amazing garage.He also owns the CBR that Gardner won the 6 hour on.
