A bit about Andy:
“Sitting at the back of the school bus in 1975 I heard this wonderful burble, the rider just opened the throttle and off he went with the throaty roar of a 4 into 1 exhaust in my ear. So my introduction to the 400 four went, leading to a life long love of motorbikes. A year later I was riding a FS1E followed by a CB125T on the day that they were released in the UK. Nine months later, having passed my test, my dreams came true – a varnish blue 400/4. Ermintrude was my daily ride for four years and, apart from a few breaks caused by marital strife, I have owned bikes ever since. My real love is the fours of the 70’s, particularly the 350/4 and 400/4. I stopped counting how many bikes I have at 26, most of them Hondas but I have at least one of each of the big four manufacturers. Some would call me a hoarder but retirement is only a few years away so I have to collect just to make sure I have enough to restore in retirement! I started restoring in 1996 and have eight full restorations under my belt. My current restorations are an almost finished CB750 K4 (due to debut on the HOC stand at Motorcycle Live 2019) and a 1974 Yamaha YG1 and currently have another three running bikes in my stable.”
