Yes, unfortunately it doesn't look that good now but all those panels/tank are still superb as I took them straight off and put them in the loft :)

It's not a model exclusive to Hayling Island Gary, that's just where I bought it from.

It was Herman who let me know about it :)

Wiring was a mess
New bars and levers and grips
New mudguards
