Not 750


Not 750, not 650, not 500 but a 350 drag bike, gearbox hacked off the engine case with an AMC box and single primary chain, super charged.....no tappet covers, check the oil feed to the rockers, pure class

Sunday 24 June 2012

With a pre-flight check list which I surmise to be longer than a 1929 Arrow Sport, I prepared the shovel for a afternoon in the peak, a leather bag full of enough tools and spares to replace the head gasket and rebuild the gear box (ref a man doing same to a panther in a snow drift in Buxton in 1989) I push into first..........no problems loving it !

Too Much ?

Hardcore drag boys

Sat here thinking

I see the last pic I posted is upside down, and I can't change it using my phone. I looked for the broken clamp so I could see where it had failed, no joy, so I'm going to design a much better system watch this space

Best of both worlds



Still waiting

Waiting for AA

Went shopping to prepare for the 2 o'clock session


Mr Gearhead and Gordie turned up on the hour, the three of us on shovel was just to much, so i set to work on wiring the sporty, while Damon and Gordie carried on with the shovel, Gordie giving us the expensive options of repairing his 1200, total comes to around £700!
