The shop is awesome.

But let's get back to the bike build

Your machining and fab is great! I like the stance. You must be close to 70 inches axle to axle?

Curious to see a number of things that yet to come; seat, handle bars, electrics and foot controls to name a few.

It could be a few weeks yet, i've the steel wire armored cable to put in and i need to change the consumer unit in the house or i can't connect it either. I can't remember the wheelbase now, it's been that long but from memory 64" maybe

Most of the frame is now bronze welded up, and Ive made all the engine mounting brackets, they just need polishing. Wheel spacers are nearly finished and axle adjusters are next on my list.

I decided the Savage light looks better than the ice cream pot

I'm lovin your workshop too. The look of your bike is really nice. The single cylinder engine sets the whole package off just right. It will be a really special ride once you put it on the road. My compliments, Mike

But i can't use the stock mounting brackets and they weigh a ton anyway, so i made ally ones with brass bushes for the controls, and i'll make up alloy levers.

And i tried my experimental exhaust and other than being loud it looks kinda neat...imo lol

Oh, and ... when i bought the donor bike it wouldn't start so i got it really cheap. But this evening - with the exhaust done, i wired it up with the basics, and stuck a little of my 120 octane drag bike fuel in and it fired straight up! Bonus Grin
