Just made a very cheeky offer for the four of them

Can get them cheaper then what I can make them

Why would you stick "make a offer" on Fleabay and then say no to every good offer!

£59.99 or make offer

Offer one : £45..... Nope
offer two : £55......nope
just paid asking amount now

Hello postman! Only waited 3 weeks for the four of them!

 

[thumperslaw]

Been awhile since i done any thing (vtr motor swap,srad engine ******)

Good news is i got the my tank back from my mate who soda blasted it for me

Only thing is i've lost my air box some where in the work shop

O and i got a new helmet

Nice to see things progressing! Keep up the good work

Kinda pulled the BMW out of the cover Wednesday.
Fitted the stacks to (for show )

Think it looks mean

Had to make some steel inserts from old car exhaust

The plate is bolted to the air box which will be sprayed black

Think you've made a mistake mounting them on the path side as you'll suck kids into them causing a misfire.

Looks mean as ****, Can't wait to see it finished.

Re-thinking the rear sub frame at the moment (i had what i wanted in my head) but this would not work.

Stupid me did not think about wheel movement,tyre size etc

So i've got to re-do it all again

All i need now is to find a pipe bender and some tubing


I want this

Apart from spraying it black am happy with the way it looks so far

More of the sub frame got the grinder

Mock up test

Cheap jig....

Busy day working on the shock mounts and sub frame again
Putting extra bars there to help cope with stress

Some bracing to and shock mount out of thick stainless steel

 

[thumperslaw]

The seat pan is made!
All I need to do is paint the sub frame to stop it rusting and get some seat foam

Tonight i've been messing around with wiring and removing lots of it. Wired the rear light and hide all wiring going to it.

Not sure what to do about the water header tank yet tho.... I've got a idea tho, along the lines of some vintage oil can...... I'll keep you posted

 

[Regy53]

loving this !

 

[nicks3607]

Good work enjoying keeping an eye on your progress.

 

[thumperslaw]

What you think about using this for the water header/catch tank?

Old brass fire extinguisher

 

[Souleh]

Love it, aslong as its not too big lol. Much more pro than my lemon zing botttle

 

[thumperslaw]

£15 seems cheap for that. Going to cut it down tho

Better then £40 for a castrol oil can tho!!
