funny u should mention that as the frame that IVE built is similar to that.Ime using a divvy 600 engine and kwaka gpz 1000 forks n wheels.I keep saying that i will put pics on to show how far ive got...but....the problem i got is lack of funds.Moneyies been crap this year so have done hardly anything to it this year.Will get the pics on this weekend and you lot can make up your own mind.Will probably never finish it the way things are going.

Mr Hornet, dont be so defeatist! Just mothball it till you can afford to pick up the project again. Looked good from what I remember of it.

Look forward to seeing your build hornet. Some old bikes have got some very interesting features, it makes a change to see bikes built with a nod to the past.
