Marcel's Special

And now for something completely different. Definitely not a shed monster but how could you leave this out. Very trick engineering. Much more to come...

Nathan's XJ - Update

Nathan has been keeping busy. This was originally 2 tanks, and XJ and an XS cut and shut and then some very slick paint. Now Damien gets to take over with his pin striping brush. Really looking forward to seeing this one finished

Phil's Yam

Another first time builder, Phil has started to tear into this Yamaha. Keep those pictures coming. Not long left now.
We are sorting out the final details for the show with Doug at Shed 5 next week so get off the computers and back into those sheds. We've got bikes to build.

Nathan's XJ

Damien and Nathan were planning to build something special from a little BSA Bantam but ran into some problems but they have come up with a new plan. Here's Damien.

Nathan and my BSA project has been put on the back boiler. It was one of those descions where its better to stop now or end up unhappy with the out come. Once we dug into the engine and rims a bit more our budget would be blown before we had it running - we could've had it as a static display but one of our parameters is to have something running on the day. There will still be a mad 2stroke BSA Bantam thing out there in the future though.

SO, we are going to go for this - Nathans XJ 400 project that he has been working on, heres some pics. Nathan has been doing all the work so far, I'll be getting in on the paint side of things as well as some of the motor work maybe - it goes but we want it to GO
