Re:

What a find – it's a lovely bike you've got there! I do like that particular frame shape/arrangement too (it reminds me of one of the Orange Formulas on here). Is it finished or will there be more pics to come?
 
Thanks groovyblueshed :) It is finished... but I like to post the odd photo now and then. This one certainly has 'patina'... the original paintwork is pretty tired but it tells a story :)

Thanks, you're welcome. There's nout wrong with some patina – it is character and does indeed tell a story. Unless a frame's in a very weathered state, it's nice to keep it all original and just cleaned up, rather than repainted. I was often intrigued by the Overburys – bitd, one of my riding mates had an e-stay model finished in black and white zebra stripes (never seen it on RB though).
