1970 road test and chopper scene

[ashimotok0]

After all of the heavy going on this forum last week, here is a bit of light relief. The UK chopper scene in 1970 and a  UK roadtest of a Uk K0 (we never got any official Sandcasts, although the 'Brighton Show Bike' was a Sandcast I believe.

Did this for my new friends on the hondachopper.com site who are investigating the bad guy who reneged on my k0 rear wheel sale.

In the book "Honda CB750 Gold Portfolio 1969-1978" there is an arthicle (5 pages) about YLY 70H with original license plate. The bike is owned and restored to perfect condition by a man named Keith Newton. I do not know how old the book is or if he still is the owner.
