I have been using a lithium iron (yes iron) battery in a modern Honda for some time and I have had no problem with it, charges on the bike at 14-14.2 volts and has a built in charging system to balance the cells I charge off the bike if needed with a standard battery charger but not a trickle charge...

I was interested in hearing the replies from those who know as I've never thought of adjusting the timing as you described, but none have been forthcoming so perhaps you are the only person to think of it.

Yes seen that silly money

This was mIne in 1963/4, I want to recreate it.

I was also bidding on this beaten again.

I've been using ATF in my arrow for 15 years seems OK but I don't do lots of miles

That's exactly what I was thinking my 2002 honda st1300 is not ULEZ exempt even though if it were 2007 it would be, exactly the same engine in both, No changes whatsoever in that time.
However my 1979 Land Rover is exempt so I'll clog up and pollute the city with that

The exhaust bracket is correct, I also had to enlarge the holes in the exhaust pipe bracket on one side, the brake linkage is on of those things that just eventually falls into place for no apparent reason, can't help with the chain adjuster as I've had no problems with mine, best of luck.

Mine is silver and I'm certain that is how they came out of the factory

Hi David, I have one and I live near Gatwick so if it doesn't work out with Ivor no doubt we can work something out.
