Only 5 owner UK bike (3 really!) now 40 years old so historical status & thus no MOT or road tax required

The last owner bought it to recommission then did nothing but sit on it for over a year, after the previous owner had done an engine out powder coated frame (good job too) & apparently lots of
work to the engine but details I do not have.  It had new Avon tyres put on it, various other bits
like new chain/sprockets, cables etc. then I got it.
 
I HAVE BEEN SLOWLY WORKING ON IT SINCE FEBRUARY & BECAUSE I LIKE ORIGINALITY
I HAVE CLEANED CAREFULLY & RESTORED ALL ORIGINAL FIXINGS, CHROME, ALUMINIUM PARTS TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY - ALL THE ORIGINAL BOLTS, SCREWS ETC, HAVE BEEN CLEANED AND not REPLACED.  I THEN PAID MY GURU TO TAKE CARBS OFF & SONIC CLEAN THEM THEN NEW SEALS, O-RINGS ETC. NEW SPARK PLUGS, FRESH OIL & FILTER, BALANCE CARBS (invoice for £381 on file)
 
I have since had all the bodywork panels sent off for a fresh paint job in the original colour 
& graphics and just flushed/refreshed brake fluids.  I have fitted new front brake pads 
and new petcock & filter (still have perfect original bits).
 
I have taken the bike as far as I want to & she is not in concours condition but
very very good leaving it a lovely usable classic that like most HONDAS will
only continue to rise in value.  To point out her minor foibles - there is a very sought 
after period GIULIARI seat on the bike which does have a split on the top 
but is easily recovered if bothered, a period 4 into 1 MOTAD exhaust 
(downpipes are good, end can slightly tarnished), no history apart from me
& obviously all my invoices.  However all the big/expensive work 
has now been completed so if you want to take it to the next stage so be it or ride & enjoy a very handsome classic (and also still very rapid!)
