I bought mine at a swap meet 32 years after the bike was out. Damn thing looked so good I paid $75 CDN for it.

I have the same poster, I talked the dealer into letting me have it at the time of purchase along with an original workshop manual.

I have a poster hanging in my garage that shows exactly that.

Ever wondered what they look like on the inside? Was doing some homework for my neighbor and came across a thread on the UK site about an XS that they were exhibiting at the Science Museum a while back.













Now everybody knows what they look like inside!

Many thanks to Tink (UK) for sending me the pics
