I had brought this bike from Brian Smart's widow, having first seen it at a Caddington rally some 40 years ago! It is a well set up bike with great pulling power, using a special camshaft ground to Brian's specification, and I only sold the bike to Rob follwing major surgery, that meant I had to call an end to my riding days.
I have spoken to Rob, and have posted a few photos on his behalf of the bike when in my ownership, it should be largely unaltered from these.

Reduced hex nuts on the cylinder and the carburettor which enables the use of a ring spanner. So I am not the only one to do that (even if I had to grind a little off the outside of the ring spanner).
