If you need a hand moving, I believe Sam is still in the States. Looks like a great place to settle down.

Sam will be in my neighborhood this weekend racing the 750 auto- looking forward to meeting with him and congratulating him on his win (you are going to win ...right?)

You bet Kev I'll take all my camera and battery will stand for... but I'll probably load the bulk onto the facebook page and only highlight Sam's win here ;)

Following on Spokes suggestion :rolleyes: on fitting a custom front fender....here's my attempt....
I used a polished stainless fender for a CB100 which I eBay'd out of Vietnam. I removed the rivets holding the stays, manufactured new stays out of 1/4" mild steel and 1.5mm galvanized plate....all held together with 5mm stainless bolts and acorn nuts

Not quite finished but nearly there.... ;)

So will I spokes ;)

It shouldn't as it is connected only to the hub and axle so it will move with the wheel (I tried to copy the same idea as the CB92). I hope I've given the rear stay enough clearance to miss the bottom of the fork when suspension is fully compressed!

Nice looking shop! You've done a lot from looking at the previous pictures.
That bike you're working on sounds really interesting. Will you paint the rims red?
