Rear end now painted, polished & Chromed, including every Nut, Bolt & Washer re-chromed!
New braided brake lines, pads, waive discs etc, now fitted to the bike.

We raised the rear end by 2 inches, this made things a little tight for space..
Ade always has the solution!

Front end stripped down. All parts in for paint, polish & Chrome.

2nd April 2008:

Fork legs, stantions, Yokes, Front wheel, every nut, bolt and washer!
New Goodridge braided hoses, fork brace & brakes.

13th April 2008:
Into the final stages - all last metal polishing and detail.
 Awaiting the custom paint bodywork for completion.

10th May 2008:
A change of mind with the rear end. We decided the rear end was that nice it had to be shown more.
So, we cut down the end can into a stubby! The extra 3 inches up on the rear certainly shows now.

Now this is gonna sound fruity!!

 
The finished bike. Now the paint is done, final polishing of the engine casings and details complete.
