Languishing in the workshop

This is as far as I've got with this build. There is never enough time left to work on your own bikes at the end of the day. I hope to get some time over the Christmas period to finish the new oil tank and line up the final drive.

It's a TC motor with Evo style mounts, Custom and Classic frame, 250 rear, hydraulic clutch, etc, etc.

Re: Languishing in the workshop

I know the feeling about not enough time.

You've made a fair old start though.

Looks like you are at the "Awkward Bracket & where the hells this going to fit" stage.

It'll be a cracker when your done.

It's at that stage alright! Having it sat there when I'm working on something else gives me opportunity to look but not touch and plan things like the wiring routing etc.

I need to get the old oil tank cut out and the new oil tank mockup finished next. When I've done that I'll post another picture.

Well, it's been a little busy around here all year so no progress on this build until this week. Managed to get the old oil tank cut out and the frame cleaned up ready for the carboard template.


I have made progress on the rigid build though. It's nearly ready to go away to have the custom seat made. Next stage will be paint and then the final build can commence!!
