    Good to join you all! Hope to contribute far more over the coming months.

    I've been a British owner/rider for more years than I care to remember - now returned to the scene after a ten year lapse. Currently restoring my '72 T120R US spec., which I've owned since 1978. My other (more modest) ride is a 1961 Francis Barnett Plover mdl. 86

    Thanks for taking the time to respond. Just got the F-B back on the road in July (she'd seized whilst in storage and sourcing a new piston proved to be a nightmare) Good to get the grease back under my nails :)!

    Welcome to the family. What a great old Fanny B terrific. Haven't seen one for years. Thanks for sharing the picture took me back years. Do share the T120 in the project and rebuilds section let us all take the journey with you. You will find some clever peeps here in the asylum who know their T120'S. Even better when the nursey has medicated them.
    Regards & Ride Safe
    Joe.
