interesting take on the front brake steady Bob
Nice bike though similar mine but you've got a bit more authenticity in it
Like the cat litter tray
All the best - Bill
1961 Flash - stock, reliable, steady, fantastic for shopping
1959 Rocket Gold Flash - blinged and tarted up  would have seizure if taken to  Tesco

Impressive!
But unless you've got large boots, don't forget to turn the gearchange lever around! *smile*

Great work Bob.
I also like the job on the stay arm. Only one suggestion, the angle the cable connects to the lever should be a bit less than 90 degrees at rest and 90 at full on.
Morris, I think Bob might be a retired Ronald McDonald  *grins*.
