Those are both beautiful bikes.  I'm likely a bit biased but I prefer the red one.  Are those the original wheels or did you paint them?

Thank you sir. I swapped them out with a friend who had the black ones and wanted gold ones.

I also love your clip-ons, but haven't got a young enough back for them myself!

Would love to know where to get that burgundy helmet

...I was thinking that, too.  Almost like a retro Simpson or Vetter or something.

I had one back in the day.
Good dirt helmet.
Not sure what their fitment is like now, but back then it fit round heads better.

I've currently got a Bell street helmet... it fits my bowling ball head well, much better than a Shoei, and a little better than my Arai dirt helmet.

The helmet pictured is an original 1975 Bell Moto 3 that was repainted by Chemical Candy in Dallas, they have since re-released the helmets due to their popularity and hipster following.

 Very nice! Which steering damper in that on the 1100S? I have an assortment of them that don't fit!

I made a custom bracket which attaches to the ignition bolts and then a simple parts bracket which mounts to the fork leg.
