    Good stuff! You are a VERY fortunate buyer and a VERY happy camper!!

    The Daytona levers are, I think, the same so if you can find an original of those it should be a straight swap - there seem to be many more Daytonas around than Speeds so there's a better chance you'll get an original from one of those.

    I forgot to mention earlier that the original grab handle will be the same for Trident; Trophy (not Sprint) and Daytona ('91 - '97 ish) so any of those sprayed the correct black (there are two black variants) will be OK. It's a matter of taste and personal preference but, for me, The Speed T. always looks better with a seat cowl. Your pillion passenger might disagree ........ ;)

    P.S. the brake discs are now unobtainium in the distinctive scrolled drilling pattern and the fronts are "handed". I did find a disc manufacturer in the South East somewhere who said they MIGHT be able to do some but the cost was prohibitive. If you find any - buy 'em, or let me know and I will (I've got 2 Speeds).
