Self-nominating my 650 for the 2022 calendar

[whipbird]

Hi hoping it’s not too late to get this post in and a seconder for this self-nomination of my ride. I purchased this bike (my first) back in 1987 and rode it for about 9 years before it went into a mate’s shed. In 2019 I rediscovered it and so stripped it down and (with a lot of help) rebuilt it. A terrific project and learning experience. I reckon I laced those wheels four times each before I got them right. The bike is - and always was - a bitzer as the motor is a ‘72 and the frame is a ‘74. It’s the love of my life (besides the bride of course). Onwards and upwards. Mike Hardy aka whipbird.

Nice bike!!
The calendar thread is here. If you want to self nominate, you need to go over to that thread and cut and paste what you just wrote here. Do that and I'll give ya a second.
Hurry though... times running out. tic toc....
