    That is so very tidy mate! Nice work. Never thought I'd see an old Plastic Maggot looking so good.
    Oh, and welcome aboard.

    Normally I'd rip the piss out of CX's,
    but you've made that one look quite neat.
    Tidy job if you don't mind that motor.

    Well done.

    That's a very nice looking bike you've built there mate. Like others I'd never have thought I'd see one of Honda's greatest hacks looking so tidy. Where are you based?
