Yes Chris. What I've got to stay focused on when I'm playing the Bundy (UK version) as opposed to my Howarth S2 is that I must keep my RH on the C key when playing low B and Bb. And there is no RH C-D trill key. And no LH B-C# trill key. It's good that the UK Bundy has the fork F vent though. Fancy the US bundy not having that. And not having the low Bb as well.
The fact that the UK Bundy only has simple octave keys and my S2 has semi-automatic octave keys doesn't seem to bother me as I now realise that when I'm using the S2 , I'm using the semi-automatic octave keys as if they were simple octave keys. Bit of a quirk of fingering that I seem to have.
