Re: '67'

I thought all you USA folk were suppose to be having summer like us? Its not that easy spraying here at the moment,we have 8-9 beaufort winds for the past week or so...But the hot sun all day long helps cure the paintwork...
Have to find time to start checking out my competition... :wink:
Thanx for all the positive comments..

Re: '67'

Last year we 2 or 3 European entries. I think you may be the only one this year.
We have some Candadians and Aussies, but mostly US.

Re: '67'

You definitely have the best workshop view that anyone could have, but mine ain't too bad.

My wife told me to post the view from my workshop doors to her beautiful courtyard garden.

Re: '67'

Ahhh, I spent 2 weeks in Scaramanga shipyard when I was a young Navy man. We would taxi into Athens and ride scooters everywhere. Those were the days. The greek girls were too rich and beautiful for a Kentucky boy like me, well, most of them!

Oh, good work on the bike! I got lost in time there for a while! Rg

And now with this crisis you would probably get one on each arm if you flash $$$$ around... :lol:
Scooters are still used now,easy and fast,cheap way to get around...My lil malaguti crosser gets me everywhere...I also have a 1983 xr200r,I use it when there is less traffic and when I feel the need to speed...There are know straight roads here,bends and farm roads with pot holes... :roll:

Re: '67'

Reading the Indian boardtracker build on the homepage,looks brilliant so far...Originally I was going to enter and build a 1910 indian replica,but considering that is my dreambike I wanted to have more time to build it...So i entered the cafe racer instead...I almost have most of the parts
the only thing i need now are the tires and engine,oh n grips...But thought i would show the frame off anyway,as i am killing time,waiting on a few parts for the cafe racer...

The frame

bits n pieces...

Re: '67'

Some sweet parts you got there ^^^^

 

[kingfish254]

Re: '67'

You definitely have the skill and the passion to accomplish that sweet dream!!
With the thought and parts that you have put into preparing for the Indian build, it deserves a build that doesn't have the time constraints of a Build Off to restrict it.

Please make sure to start a build thread for it here on RRB, when you do start the Indian build.

In the meantime, stop dreaming about what will be, and get busy on that way cool cafe racer you have planned !!!!! :mrgreen: 8)

I'm stuck in limbo,waiting on the front forks...So dreaming is all I can do at this point :|
Been collecting parts for the last year,thats just a dip in the honey pot.

Re: '67'

Indeed. That is a very cool frame.

The frame is a Monet Goyon...I have another 3 sets of bicycle girder forks...I think i have a thing for them. :wink:
