Really nice. Since it's in bits on your bench, why don't you put the bits in boxes and send it all to me?! Nothing like that in the states.

Hi Murdock
thanks for sharing the images of your Can am with us. The bike looks great. Several years ago I had a ride on a friends Can am but the bike didn't have much go in it. I was wondering what the performance of your bike is like. Living just over the hill from you at New Mills perhaps we could meet for a brew at Compo's cafe one day and compare notes.

As for performance of these bikes, unless every thing is 100% they dont go right at all. The carb on mine was totally worn out & knackered. And it had a 175cc piston in a 250 bore..
Their ment to have 26bhp at the back wheel so they should be quite spritly..!!!
When I'm up n running again I'll let you Know with a post on here. End of month hopfully
