It looks great. I have a very nice 199A which I love and which cost a fair bit to fully restore. It's the bike I always wanted when I rode my 175 as a schoolboy, just like Bernies'! It's a bit of an obsession, frankly.

 

Looking at yours makes me realise how much I prefer the alloy tank. Do keep it original.

 

I wonder if I can find an alloy tank somewhere?...... :D
