While on the Cumbrian GTG I saw this bike. Firstly I thought it was a Manx Norton but now I have my doubts. Can the panel help in identifying it please.

Oooh Err...
I gave up biking on the 26th Sept last year, after going over the bonnet/roof of a Nissan X Trail.
Now got a ML350 with 30 airbags....
 
So the one in my photo has a Honda lump, interesting. Done by Paul Dunstal by any chance?
 
the sock 750 honda was a great engine, put pirhana ignition unit on it and warm cam and it would pull to 12k, but the frames were utter ****e, so world + dog put sock motors into any other frame they had.

("sock" for SOHC)

The camshaft ran in the heads, no shells, which picked up for a passtime, and the gear selector was a birdcage that fell apart for a passtime.

and now for something completely different, and yes, it runs...
