Trik boys working on their comeback! Posted Monday, June 20, 2005 by Mr.7/11
Finally got some signs of life from Rotty (Wayne) and Triky (John), two of my main supporters that have been gone missing since last year.
Rotty finally got a workshop/showroom at last. He's been putting up walls / racking and slowly moving equipment in and still waiting for a landline to be connected. He will be trading under the name of J and W motorcycles, doing builds, servicing and all the usual other stuff. They're also looking into a Fuchs dyno. The address is UNIT 2, COPPULL ENTERPRISE CENTRE, MILL LANE, COPPULL, LANCASHIRE, ENGLAND, PR7 5AB. Contact number at the moment is 07739093646 (UK mobile) but will update when the landline is set up.
John "Triky" Betts has been up working on the Rotty's Spondon seat unit, and hopefully will finish the Katana.project fairing soon after that ;-)
J and W will also be stocking TES Performance products. I've allways dealt with TES trough Rotty and never had a problem, and as Rotty will be stocking most of TES's OldSkool Suzuki bits with the usual discounts to OSS-members we hope he'll be up and running soon (probably in two weeks or so).

Bike of the Month - June 2005 Posted Monday, June 13, 2005 by Mr.7/11
What can you say about this bike that hasn't been said before? Fantastic bike built by a great guy. They deserve to win every award there is to win so also Bike of the Month here at OSS. He's made us all very proud at the Streetfighters show.

Click here for a small impression of MotoacXtion. To my surprise I even won a €100 Bike-Design voucher with my non-show bike :-)

What!? Another exhaust for the Katana.project? Posted Wednesday, June 8, 2005 by Mr.7/11
It seems that way yes. It's the curse of having too many good people around you ;-)
Last monday a box arrived on my doorstep, containing left-overs from FastCat's 'Busa-killer project. The full story can be read here.

Streetfightermeeting 't Gemaal Posted Saturday, June 4, 2005 by Mr.7/11
I got hosed down pretty bad on my way there, but when I got there I thought it was my birthday party! ;-)
Group after group of Oldskool Suzuki streetfighters arrived at the scene. I think 75% of the bikes present were Suzuki showing everyone that when you're talking hardcore streetfighters the GSX-R rules the pack. For all of you poofs that stayed home (and people outside holland) the pictures are here to enjoy!
