| I was at Garstang autojumble on Sunday and there was a heavily | |
| modified NF. Looked like an older set of modifications or was it | |
| a civile. It had a hydraulic rear brake and very different | |
| handlebar controls. The centre stand was drilled The carb fed | |
| the engine from the rear and not the side. It had a lots of folk | |
| peering at it. As the call of the snack wagon I left it and it | |
| was gone on my return. I have got some pictures which I have put | |
| onto photobucket. I dont know how to make these available to the | |
| forum . | |

| Hi Cryospped; that sounds interesting. Why would anyone want a | |
| hydraulic brake on the rear of all places? Mine locks up if you | |
| apply with any enthusiasm, and seeing the length of the brake | |
| lever, that's no surprise... | |

| The hydraulic rear brake reservoir seems to be a chain oiler | |
| ooops | |

| No problem; glad it worked out. | |
| There are some very strange modifications to that NF. | |
| The inlet manifold looks like it's off a Civile, and the bike | |
| may be Civile in origin, but that looks like a V35 or V50 tank, | |
| and the seat also may have originated there. I'm not clear about | |
| the hydraulic brake, as we still seem to have the brake lever | |
| and the lever on the rear SLS drum. | |
| Just had another look; it's not a hydraulic drum - it's a home | |
| made chain oiler. | |
| He's extended the clutch arm presumably to relieve effort at the | |
| lever, lost the heel end of the gear shift lever, and fitted the | |
| external oil filter kit. | |
| The dash isn't Militare, and probably a Civile, so my guess is | |
| that it's been a Civile, that's lost its tank and seat, and been | |
| modified with what's available. Someone on the old forum | |
| suggested a V35 tank did fit, but I've never put it to the test. | |
| He'll have lost a few grams by drilling out the centre stand! | |
| Next time, you'll need to sign him up, so we get the whole | |
| story! | |

| Yes some interesting mods. Definitely a v series tank and | |
| possibly seat. If it is there in September I will look for him | |
| before I have my burger, | |
