Photo's of my bike from the Ace Cafe (NOW FOR SALE)

Post by Ratty »

Totally forgot to post these.

Made a few changes to my bike since I posted pics of it last.

Things I've added/ changed.

Filled in wheels.
NT400 front forks (quick fix as the old ones were bent as hell)
Comfy Home made subframe/seat.
Car exhaust can.
Home Made engine Bars.
Highway pegs.
BIG twin headlights.
Wiring loom/cdi/reg-rec etc moved into ammo can on side.
Front mudguard rack.
Indicators fitted.
Spine and gasmask (you never know when you might need a spine and gas mask)
New paint job (Wilko's all-weather masonary paint)

Bugger, I knew my storm was missing that all important something when I tricked it up. :lol: :lol:
Christ, how long have you been riding around without them? imagine all of times you could have found yourself stuck in the middle of nowhere with neither mask nor spine?!?!? You crazy fool! :P

Havent exactly gone over the top on seat padding have you mate? How the hell did u do Notts to the Ace on that seat? It is probably YOU that needs the spine :)

Speaking of seats, any chance i may see that Seat subframe this year? If not, just say so and i will source one elsewhere mate, not a problem.
Don't tell anyone but I put a bit of sponge on it for the ride down ;)

Glad you mentioned the subframe, should be able to get it in the post tommorow mate, pm me your address :)

Well, that certainly made me laugh. Bloody marvellous - its like "restoring" an old cottage - it doen't matter if the plaster is rough and the skirtings don't meet - its character!
Two bikes, still only four cylinders!

Everyone to their own, it is individual, but I do have to say that I'd rather inject my eyeballs with mercury rather than do that to one of my bikes..........
