One will turn up eventually, just have to keep searching.  It took me 5 years to find the R&R CR-1 I built recently.  Trouble is the damn thing will turn up just when you are at your skintest  :LolLolLolLol:

Beautiful bike you have built though, really, really top class.  :4_17_5:

Not seen one of those before (so i stand corrected),

It has the same appearance, length, beveled sides and stepped top cap.  

Where they made by the same company/rebadged ?
other than the build spec on the OS-DB website i can't find any info on them  :-\
