2 Strokes Down Under

Back again, hardly touched the bike for a while because I've been away in Perth for a while and we're always broke around November/December. Various regos and Christmas getting in the way of motorbike plans sucks haha. Anyway finally got back into it last night with a bit of a mock up of a gauge hol...

I'm building it for road, but I might have to get it out onto the track one day to see how it goes. I did think about a fairing at first but I'm going to keep it naked, black with a gold stripe to match the heads I reckon. Oh and Wizz I think the clearance should be good, the height the bike is at o...

The pipes are JL I'm really happy with the way they look and where they sit, can't wait to hear them haha.

Definitely make up some of those stands when you're ready, it's really handy being able to work around it without it moving and nothing getting in the way

Got a bit of time in the shed today, just loosely hanging pipes to work out how much I could take off the pillion peg brackets without losing the exhaust mounts. Turns out not much haha

A couple of quick snaps of what's been keeping me busy lately, I swear the camera in my phone is getting worse with every photo it takes. I put some primer on the frame to keep it from rusting while I mock things up and while we're on the topic of mocking things up I made some stands to mount it on ...

That sounds awesome!

Haha not so much, I don't think he's ever ridden a bike in his life and his idea of the perfect shed would be full of gym equipment. Knows his way around a welder though, handy having a sheety/boilermaker in the family

Don't worry it's only tidy until I start working in there lol and the hubs will be black. The white hubs were done by the previous owner who was building it as a race bike

Yeah I'm really happy with how the engine and the shed have come out. Just finished pulling the triumph down, cleaning it up, getting the exhaust coated and putting it all back together so now there's room to start working on the rd on the lift

Umm different, that's all I've got for this one lol

Oh and another quick update, although these pics of the rd were still taken in the house I've spent a bit of time working on the shed and I've now got a great space to work on all my toys http://i567.photobucket.com/albums/ss111/waggy84/DSC_0079.jpg http://i567.photobucket.com/albums/ss111/waggy84/D...

Hey everyone, been a long time since I've been on here and even longer since an update. To be honest not much was happening with the project for a while but a couple of things came together all at once just last weekend so here's some happy snaps. My brother in-law finished building a battery/electr...

Haha no I'm an Aussie, I'm in Victoria though so it's about as cold as the UK. Really i just don't have the room in the shed at the moment, gotta clean it up and get rid of a car that's in there to make room for a bike lift
