Well today I picked up the H2c and spent all day dodging the heavy thunder storms, hail stones and black clouds riding about Surrey in a cloud of blue smoke!
Anyways, the SD has a serious competition in the garage for certain situations and needs.

As Kawasaki say, "Let the good times roll"

Bic that is a great looking bike, always wanted a crack on one. Love smokers.
Hard to believe it is in original nick.
Good to see at least one of you is back to pre baby weight.

Your bike is a great looking piece of nostalgia. I still have a bit of a twinge of fear tempered with respect that I get just looking at a photo of your bike. I don't remember the front brake on the ones I owned being that weak. They were wooden feeling at the lever but I think you need to take a close look at that front brake because something isn't right. Also check for play in the swingarm bushings. On these chassis you just can't afford to have any extra slop anywhere. I can smell the exhaust just thinking about it!

Congrats with getting it home. Love the purple.
Brakes...a friend recently bought a restored Honda 750 K2 for similar nostalgic reasons.
Jumped off his Ducati onto it and sh*t himself with the total lack of stopping power.
Welcome back to the 70's. The amusing part is gonna be when you launch yourself over the bars next time you ride the SD
