Cheers Bob,

However I can make just as many cockups as others.

Just tightening the fork spindle pinch bolts and Crack!!!   Over tightened without thinking and snapped one of the sections!
Now I have to remove the fork leg and weld it up before re-polishing and fitting!  Half a days work just ***** away!  *sad2*
Kicking myself!

Crickey mate, looks like riding her is going to be better than sex (or the memory of).
Shame to get her dirty, but then she's that shiny the mud won't stick.
Cheers

Julian,
Your bike is just sooo desirable!

Surely with all that power and low gearing you are going to be pulling wheelies nineteen to the dozen.

Hi there,

Well even with the 60t rear sprocket I calculated that it will still pull 85 MPH @ 6000 revs in top.   What do I do?    can't gear it much lower  *smile* *smile*    or Higher!

Wheelie machine?   Yeeehhhhhh   *eek* *smile*

Made the exhaust last night and this morning,  Made a tapered tube from collector back to reverse cone.  Turned out just as I hoped,
The complete exhaust will be satin black ceramic coated.  

What do you think?

Is that the one where 'The Beast' kicks back and Julian gets to fly?

Yum yum, are you taking applications for test pilot? *sick*
Sorry, can't register it down here. The rear guard is too short!

She looks wonderful. Hope you will be posting a video of her in action. Are you going to put her on a dyno?
