Looks like a proper riding machine. Mine is a 38VH and it's all pleasure.
If you want the experts to list everything that's not original you will probably have to ask them for it!

Re: New Sporty Horse Arrived
MPH (not KPH) speedo - unusual on a continental bike? Is that original or something that's been fitted just to fill the hole??

Re: New Sporty Horse Arrived
Yes I know much parts I know these are not original,
Some is modified for german road like speedometer.
The carburetor is a dellorto racing carburetor.
The other parts I don't know so clear me up.
What's original and what's not fit.?

Be careful that the wood does not catch fire 
Just thinking about a wooden building in Austria.
Oh, really nice bike by the way. Just ride it and enjoy.

Re: New Sporty Horse Arrived
Just enjoy it and don't worry about originality. the important thing is that it is roadworthy - considering its age it has the right to have a few non-=original components; things do wear out or simply get broken!
