sculpture as art

Always prepare a nice place to put the body parts when working on the bike

quick tune up

I wanted to check that everything was in perfect working order before the Schotten tea party weekend, including checking the ignition timing with a strobe gun.

Tüv testing

The Tüv inspector got his chance for a short ride around the test ground

rebuild 2

This has to be one of the sexiest bikes made, all the better without clothes on. Every visible part is gorgeous

first buy the bike

This is how I got the bike, looks ok from the ebay pictures but there were lots of little things which needed to be fixed

rebuild

I stripped everything down to the crankcases- the internals should be in good condition as the bike rode great on the ride back from Edinburgh.

start up

I could not wait for help to bring the bike downstairs before starting, so just opened the window and put the back of the bike up to it, great Sunday morning for my neighbours!
