I love that attitude of "It's not original, but it makes it useable". My '29 Matchless T4 has several mods to make it ridable (and safe).

What a wonderful machine, your so lucky to even see it

[@RETSAERETEP]

Wow !!!

[@davidmacgregor5193]

I'd love to see the KX 838 going into production so that I can buy one, it looks the dog's dangly bits.

Truly outstanding and nice to see that the machines “ up grades “ which could be removed to return the machine to it’s original specification ……that carb will respond much better when it’s lever operated 😉

I had similar brakes on my pushbike as a kid in the 70's. I'd jam my plimsole in the front tyre!!

[@skymningforelsket1302]

Yeah, that's very primitive. Until you consider that your alternative at the time was walking or riding a horse. Then it don't seem so bad to use that thing instead.
