CMA 18" heavy old things, but they're ace, and period

Rest in peace Mr Higham, you were a true legend and an inspiration to so many. Found the Yoshi pipe you put on this originally this afternoon and determined to put it back on, then I got home to the shite news.

I did build that Mag II but I don't know where the seat unit came from. It was with the frame when I bought it. It was extended with carbon fibre at the front by John Martin's lad.

Also this will be repainted shortly to get it back to how it looked when I got it, with the addition of a VBS logo on the tank which it had when it first left Pip's place 35 odd years ago...

Saw Dick and the band at the Old Angel in Nottingham last Wednesday, they still got it

With the raised back end the 16" wheel on the front made things a little squirrely. Major league tank slappers. Rather than drop the back end down again I thought I'd use the 18" CMA wheels from JB. Front was quite straightforward. EFE disks fitted which was a bonus.. The rear is taking a bit more work. Richard found me a disk from a VX800 with the correct stud pattern but I needed to open up the centre hole by 6mm. The disk is l8ned up perfect so now I need to make a few spacers to center the wheel and a calliper bracket. Right, Sunday dinner time...

I reckon Hegatron will be looking like a complete bike by then.

Sorry if a site inappropriate image got through, I can't find my glasses and these images are tiny on my phone.

They're loose tyres I'm afraid. I have numerous Bandit wheels but they're all attached to motorcycles, soz.

I've a pair of barely used 17" wets if anybody wants them?

Phone stopped ringing around last Christmas. He's keeping the workshop he's built up, just had to take on a PAYE until folk have a bit more disposable again...

ETTO rebuilt mine a couple of years ago but he has ceased trading. I'll ask him where he sourced the rebuild kit tomorrow.
