Hi Kurt, great photos! Love the "English Touring" paramount with proper saddlebag & mudguards. I've built my '80's Claud Butler up this way but am currently seeking a smaller frame for it - I'm being a bit 'picky' about this as the Claud's really OK, just a bit of a stretch for me lengthwise & with minimal standover: so I'm not in a hurry. Managed to get a Nuovo Record rear der on e-bay tonight, so no need to try to switch around my spare SR mech as discussed, but thanks for your advice.
