My new toy, looking for articles and photos on these bikes

[HenryDorsetCase]

Crikey that is a cool looking bit of kit. You could just get a new muffler for it - the pipe that is on there is nice enough in terms of being mandrel bent and springs and such - doenst look like some cheap piece of shit bodged up by some numpty in a shed somewhere using finest Sparrowcraft (TM) technique.

a betterer piccy although now it has a katana dash

Yeah you're right. That exhaust, especially the muffler looks way out of place. What year is the bike?

Got this pic from an article, doesn't scan well as it's black print a dark photo overlay page

Does say in it that the kits were sold in 1983 for $3199 and included:

Frame
Braced swingarm
Aluminium tank
Seat unit
Foot rest assemblies
Bars & Triple clamp
Fairing & screen
Set of S&W shocks

And the Megacycle Pipes were built on the bikes to suit the frame

interesting, must be a later article, what mags it in as it's got twin piston calipers, fairing mopunted later model mirrors and a rear hugger, not in fashion in those days.
