The loudest bike i have owned, i ran it without a silencer ( would not run any othet way ). Broke down on every journey even with electical mods. Extremely difficult to start, could only kick start by standing up!Sold it many years ago and have mourned the loss ever since. Will buy one soon. There is no other bike like it.
