Not a Ninja frame and definitely not Martin's first rodeo.

Hand built frame, fenders hand shaped on a tree, a cool KTM build...check out instagram links for more.

And I absolutely LOve the PreIndustrial revolution English Wheel.
I did bodywork for a few years,, What you have shown you can do is inspiring.
Yeah. Im a pain,, I know,, all meant in fun.

What's the headlight mounted to - it looks like a Honda Fury one.
And you plan to hand make/fit a tank for it ?
I find in some cases to build a frame around a tank/motor combo.
Like your lower triple was modded to fit that headlight.
I'd have made the trellis frame to fit say a GSXR or a monster or whatever tank that has the perimeter frame.
Of course the motor is narrow, these tanks are much wider than the motor and would dwarf it aesthetically.

Cool.
Srinath.

The head light is a cheap universal headlight from Ebay, I might change it, not sure I like it, it is mounted to a bracket that I fabricated. I have not modified the bottom yoke.
The yokes are standard Triumph Street Triple.
The frame has been designed to be strong and light I will make a tank to fit, I have not decided what it will look like yet, or what I hope it will look like. This will be my second attempt at aluminium petrol tank fabrication so hopefully will be a little better than the first.

Holy Crap!!! This looks to be a great build.

It's Alive.
Finished welding the mounts and pressure testing the petrol tank but had no fuel line so had to fill the carb up with a syringe. But it started even ticked over. Really quite surprised as the carb is a Mikuni flat slide jetted for a Buell.

What tank do you plan to use ?
I would have picked the tank and built my frame to the tank - but of course I think an English wheel is what they use on wheel of fortune and a planishing hammer is used to punish sinners in the middle ages.
I'd have in fact hacked a frame section and tank going to that frame like maybe a Monster 900 and used that whole kit and Kaboodle. But again - no where near your skills.

Good luck with the build and ride. Watching it eagerly.

Cool.
Srinath.

The really tricky part is getting the other side to match..

Solid Truth right there..

Martin had no problem building this bike.  I've been following along on Instagram and the bike was "finished" weeks ago.
