I don't see why not. I'm quite proficient at resolving and objecting to beaurocracy - the bigger obstacle may to source documents and onerous payments!

I've reached out to BSR Motorsports, and while they were very helpful, the pricing was too close to new to consider. I realise I failed to follow up on the cam, but if memory serves, it was for a restoration. I'll follow up on this to confirm actually, but consider this route only a partial...

I'm still patiently scouring for parts, trying to keep the repair within an acceptable cost in terms of the bike's value. I've been given an offer of mid 20k for it as is, advertising as a project bike. While it is money for another bike, I'm still liking the idea of using it for an electrical...
