Worst thing a shitty little garage like mine will cost you £35,000 in my row of garages. Parking charges are a complete bastard to motorcyclists, it just means car drivers pay premium for garages to drive in from the suberbs and park five days a week. Get the bus you suburbans.

Sorry, I'm too thick to be able to actually post the pic here so you'll just have to click on the link. It's an old pic of my little green hot-rod in it's final roundfin itteration. It was at this stage running a 70mm crank with 4mm over Carilos, 90mm bore, a silly cam, flowed midvalve heads and 40mm carbs, ChroMo pushrods. Next to no flywheel, close ratio straight cut ZD gearbox and a 7/33 rer end. In that guise I dyno'd it and it made 84 RWBHP @ 9,750RPM and it made an ungodly noise while it did it :grin: .

 

Since then lots of the go-fast bits have gone into this.

Its not until you see just the engine in the frame like the previous picture that you can appreciate the simplicity and beauty of it - did you bead blast it to get a finish like that? Looks great.

I think I see a HTM roadster under all that shiny paint. I have questions;

What are the rim sizes on your lovely bike? :food:

And what tire sizes do you run?

Ben hi,

 

Actually the engine isnt paint at all it's being glass blasted and after

that dipped with acid to obtain that whitedish color

regarding the rims in front got a 17 inch with 120

and rear is a 18 inch with 160 both Bridgestone bt14 (same as on

a Suzuki gsxr 750)

Andre - thanks for sharing your bike photo.  It is one of the most tastefully-done specials I have seen.  Where is the tank from?

the tank is aluminium which I bough few year ago in Scotland at

very nice guy to deal with, he got even more guzzi products in ally

I also bough the seat, but at the end I didnt put it on my bike 'coz it was

to high for me and would have break the general line of the bike.

 

Cheers

André

Yes...

The black paint on the V11s just drives me to distraction.

What is wrong with these guys?

I shoulda just dumped a couple of K$$ into my SP

I intend to anyway...then the Duc came along...then the LeMans..

If I had Andre's my 02 LeMans would be sporting

cob webs.l

It's a UN bike

R 90 fairing, CX tank, CX turbo tail, 700F seat, HD front fender (Bolted right on!)

Gotta get back working on it ...grins per mile is off the chart..so is the reliability!

I'm sure this won't be of too much interest, compared to some of these beauties, but here, if the buttons work, is my more or less standard 750S3, much loved and much used, usually at near V11 pace!
