Welcome aboard. I am guessing you are in the UK?
We have owners here from all around the world.

Welcome. It's good to see that these old bikes are still attracting new owners. There's a lot of knowledge on here, you just have to ask.

Hi Paul,
Welcome to the group.
Nice shocks and wheels.
Albeit that I do think that jack is a bit overkill for just an 856 Frame...................a full bike maybe, but just a frame...? <GRIN>

Hi, I was watching this bike on eBay a while back, very nice!  I have not seen a rear shock like that before, what make and model is it?
