Bill,

Thanks for the photos. That is interesting stuff. Now we are getting the idea of the transformation, and what a transformation!

Bill I thought that frame did not look like an original swinging arm.
Did you convert that yourself as the first picture shows that frame and engine mius the exhaust pipe in black and the series of pictures shows you renovating it and spraying it silver.
I must say the finished article looks a heck of a lot better than in the first picture.
How well does it run and handle?
What swinging arm and shocks did you use?

Bill it is an interesting combination and more than likley the only type in existence

LJ spot on as usual except we had stopped due to someone else having a small problem and used the time to take a couple of photos.
I was riding Ritchies A10 that day I think we had gone to the Camping weekend in the motorhome as we were touring and had no bike with us.
be lucky
