Thanks very much. I always try to provide as many details as possible to try and make it interesting.

For me it's the sympathetic restoration and the time spent getting little details right.

Restoring rather than buying or replacing is always my preferred option and far more satisfying and easier on the wallet... although not all the time!

AND you have less issues with riding the bike... no point in having a bike you're too scared to ride, but appreciate some amazing like new restorations are just hung-up like wall art, I'd be too scared to ride them too!
