Motorcycle and Scooter appreciation

There's a lovely write-up on on, here

That brings back memories, my first ride on a Mk1 in about 1979 after I sold my 750 Honda. My mate took me to collect it on his California, and the pair of us had a real adventure getting home. He was sat up dead straight, and he seemed so much taller than me, crouched over the LeMans, and in real life he was much shorter.
For some reason I used to pretend I preferred an open face lid, so I looked like I knew what I was doing, and this was only mt third proper motorbike. It rained, it was cold, I didn't have waterproofs or decent gloves, and Dr Martin boots and jeans. And when I got back after what objectively was a miserable experience I just sat and looked at this amazing bike that was now mine. Fuck, I was so happy.
But the quirky switches, misfiring at low speed, (mine came with trumpets, so no air filters and the carbs were full of dirt and flies!) the torque reaction, the painful neck and wrists. Oh happy days. I still regret selling it about two years later.
So what is the story with the lemans 2 that needs work?
