love those seats. You'd get a cool burn pattern on a hot day off them too!

going to be road legal(again).....its been off the road for 9 years whilst the previous owner stripped it and started buying new bits...he just never got round to rebuilding it and lost interest.....

Looking good chap

Managed to get mine looking more like today and it certainly gives you incentive once it starts coming together. A little bodywork makes a hell of a lot of difference

Love the seats

Looking very nice, Also love the seat!

Looking good.

There is only one thing i can say that i don't like. This is the collector at your exhaust.

But i shouldn't be speaking as i don't build anything anymore.

That's looks to be coming along very nicely. Keep up the good work.

yep...gotta agree with you...

its the only way i could do it on the cheap for the time being...when im happy i will make a nice shiney on that looks a bit more professional.....


omega0684 - 14/2/10 at 10:53 PM

are you going to put padding in the seat? personally i can't see that seat being anything but uncomfortable, but every man to his own and all that.


boggle - 14/2/10 at 10:59 PM

haha...the seat is a prototype for a chap on here....i may use a pair yet, and i would deffinatly want a cushion to sit on!!!!


l0rd - 14/2/10 at 11:00 PM

May I ask why the image of your rear right wheel seems a bit odd?


boggle - 14/2/10 at 11:05 PM

its because i have no rear dan bar fitted and the adjustable rear trailing arms are not bolted in properly yet...the rear axle is not stabalised...

Looking good, you've been busy, that's a lot of progress in 3 months, only thing I'd say is why the mahoosive battery ( Mr C, Chapman - add lightness).
Why did you stop with the single carb, go for the pair, not that expensive second hand (go for Dellorto's, cheaper than Weber and just as good).


boggle - 14/2/10 at 11:16 PM

battery was out of a skip so was free, and is used to give power whilst i test the electrics.....etc...


its a single 48 dcoe and i asked about it and was told its as good as a pair of 45's.....

That green plastic is going to flap a bit
Otherwise, very nice indeed.
