    Welcome to the forum tiggsy.
    You've got us all in suspense! Is it a bike, a car or just a personal triumph ?

    14 plate Speed master. ( the matt grey one). It has those cocktail shaker pipes on it, which are a little short for my taste. The original pipes will be going back on. Also it has a sissy bar, but I prefer the single seat and seat rack look. will probably put the pipes and sissy bar up for sale.

    Jeez this is getting exciting. Just like being a kid at Xmas and waking up to see if Santa dropped off your big game hunter set or the car windscreen with steering wheel, moving wipers , indicator stalk and horn etc that you really wanted.

    Well, we are in suspenders???? Is that right,lol? What is it? My bet is a Bonnie of one sort or another.

    Been out on it today. Sun a bit strong going out so was really careful, coming back was great though. clutch lever a bit to far round for me. I need to slacken bar grip and turn it round a few degrees. I now have a pair of cocktail shaker mufflers for sale, anyone got an idea of their worth?

    Very nice, if it wasn't for the fact you said it was a 14 reg bike and have shown the plate in the pics I would have said it was much newer. Somebody has loved that and taken good care of it. I hope it gives you lots of fun times. Enjoy.
