Thought that I would add some eye candy as I took a few pictures.

Nice, not the most common bike to see around especially not as good as yours
Always makes me wonder what Yamaha was thinking with the headlight looking radiator scoop whenever I  see photos of 1

had a mud deflector on the very forward end on the guard too, to deflect the mud past the radiator intake & up into your face lol. Might be wrong & was just the 250J or 125J that came with that!!. Had a blue magnum carb on mine--bike was a trade in at work but had a lot of fun on it even though it was dated but about 5 years. I had a frame once or a roller that had--had a kx500 in it. Never saw it as a runner but had nightmares just thinking about it. With your 'H', keep the steering races tight or you'll have water cooled [or heated & melted grease] coming out the bottom. Cheers. ps, good point is no power valves to wear out etc--good bikes & great times.

Here is another one on the way that has a red frame. It's made out of all the spare parts from the other builds and will take a while to complete.

Things that have been done to it:

- strip and paint frame
- clutch rebuild
- cylinder hone
- top end rebuild
- engine paint
- strip and repaint triples, pegs and spring
- lots of cleaning
- plenty of substitute parts as it is not for show.
- new seat cover
- new plastics
- lots of cleaning.....
