Thanks.

Looking forward to more pics of how they chose to modify the frame.

Can see a few interesting things from those pics. More detailed pics would be much appreciated. So many of us will never have a chance to see it, without you.

Sadly Pete Gibson passed away last month, he was the chap behind Allspeed exhausts in the UK.

You didn’t answer the question
The reason I’m asking if the bike was ever at
Kenny roberts ranch since Kenny roberts was the manager of the Yamaha team and Brian turfrey worked for him

What's with the attitude ? I answered your question about Pete Gibson and in my previous posts explained the history of the bike.

The restoration has been delayed due to work on the house but I still plan to have the bike track ready for May this year. The fuel tank had a minor dent on the top and I don't want to use any body filler so I have sent it away to have the dent removed.
