+1. Normally I would moan about non standard bits but in addition to the horrible blue fasteners on the oil pipes the only other thing I would change would be put twin open pipes on it

The 10th image on the Black Shadow Lot 293 looks as if a cylinder has fallen off, either that or someone has mixed in the Meteor photo!.

The ninth image as well, showing a headlight with separate speedo and bramptons.

Also seems odd to me that it says the bike was exported from Michigan, yet it has a California title.

I hadn't noticed that the Rapide was the Alex Phillips TT winner.
