  1. I’ve decided to dry build the bike I was initially going to strip it down have the frame polishing done the start from scratch but I’ve decided to do it the long way but that will give me a better bike in the long run. ive booked it in with Steve Taylor to have some wheels made so sadly after a wait to to get it back home it will be going on holiday again for a month or so in the next few weeks but then that’s all the big jobs done if I can have a rolling bike for winter il be happy this is a 2 year project
  2. Thanks Clive I’m struggling to get any work done just keep staring at it
  3. Yah il be there hopefully on track to

  7. Mite have to have this little freebie restored and fitted
  8. Another part of the jigsaw back from vapour blasting ready to go to be rebored and piano wired
  9. Wich is why I want to post it from its bare state so I can be seen a fresh build at the minute it’s in a dry build state having some work done then il strip it once it’s back and post in other news I think I’m gona have some wheelsmade by Steve Taylor like these
  10. Few more bits I’ve gathered up mocul oil cooler and a few bits from that bloke who does wizzy pop bang things
  11. I will let you know mate il pm you if I decide to move on il know in the next week
  12. Backed some genuine spondon clip ons and some yokes two trying to fit as many genuine spondon parts as I can to the build
  13. I also bagged some superbike disc the rear is a fully floating brembo wich I’m happy with the front are some superbike spec brembo t drives the only problem with them is there not your usual on the market T drives there ones most can’t get there 7mm thick so you you have to run the mega expensive race mono blocks most a mint used set last week at £1400! So I’m dat on the fence weather just to buy a full PFM set for less money
  14. Bought these from TAS racing they are KTech KTR-3 forks from Micheal Lavertys superbike mainly because there are the ideal length and spec for the spondon not many forks are as long as needed on a spondon and these were ideal as well as been trick double bonus
  15. So in 1998 I was12 years old I bought a copy of streetfighters mag an in it was jack frosts turbo wheelie record spondon it was at that exact moment I knew I had to one day have one the same! I’d stare at the pictures for hours now like everyone else you didn’t realise how hard they would one day become to get your hands on so through out my adult life either lack of funds or lack of being able to find one have got in the way of owning one. Until the end of last year when I got a phone call off a good friend who owned one and was quite aware of how much I wanted one. Now the owner has done a hell of a lot with this bike that is well documented so I don’t need to tel you about that but a deal was made that I would buy the chassis and all the bits originally supplied but spondon for two reasons 1- I want to build my own spondon not change someone else’s bike 2-he wanted to use many of the parts to build his other projects so perfect for everyone now I want to do this build thread from a bare frame upwards but I’ve kind of done things a little backwards mainly to speed things up in the final build so the bike is currently out of shop having some fab work done all of wich I will post but for now this picture is my inspiration I loved this bike and still do so I’m not going to apologise if it ends up similar I dreamt of owning it as a kid and now I’m gona build my own version of it! Il keep you posted dudes
