A bike i used to drool over was a super six with Thompson Suzuki on the tank and done exactly like the one in the picture except for the pipes.Where were these put together and who by as it was owned by a lad at Melbourne/Derbyshire and the local bike shop was a Suzuki main dealer called Maurice Parnham.He did sell a few done as cafe racers but not with Thompson on the tank.
Any details or information would be appreciated.

 Glad to see you've got the Yam. YAS-1 in it's right place @ top. A red one of those was my firsr ever bike when I was in the RAF out in Cyprus. I bought it @ Samero @ the 5 ways road crossing in Limassol. They'd loaned me a clapped out old Honda 90 to keep me quiet as they'd only open up the crate to take out 2 bikes @ a time & I was waiting on their next order. After  practising on it for ages, when I stepped on the YAS-1 for the first time & just lightly touched the throttle ( compared to the crappy Honda ! ) I raced up the road a 100 yds & smacked this Greek off his bicycle.
Trouble with red paint out there, it soon starts  to "orange peel" so I got my mate to repaint it in DTD.5555 paint which was rock hard in mid night blue. - I used to blow him off on his Honda 160 on accelaration every time.   - That was back in the good old days before Thatcher & May were ever heard !
