Bike only has 90 miles on it at this point so that may well be the case, we shall see. The Matchless is long gone. Abandoned in Juarez by a buddy i loaned it to when I went across the pond. Then there was the 6T Triumph, a 305 scrambler, a 51 panhead, an AJS 650 twin, various and sundry xs 650's , SR500's, /5 beemers, and a couple of RoadStars. Right now I'm down to a Roadstar and the RE. Would happily swap the Roadstar for something a bit lighter.
