  1. Did he ever complete it and have it running ? I remember following all the work he did to notch the frame for chain line etc. Never seen craftsmanship like it.
  2. Just an idea. I believe guy who built this was called Strangewayze on here, years ago. Don`t know if he is still on here. Would love to have heard this. 8 valve engine with turbo. Must sound like a Lancaster bomber taking off. eccentric rear ride height adjuster for rears shocks. Not seen that before on a twin shocker
  3. Black looks the dogs nadgers . Shame they all seemed to rot at the collector. had to reweld mine a couple times. Stainless would be good or Titanium, like Racefit make theirs from. last forever then
  4. Had my GS 1000 about 20 odd years and always regret selling it. Something special about the sound of the old 8 valve engine and the Harris Black Chrome works exhaust it had. Howled like a banshee, when on full chat
  5. Always liked the old magnum 4. Used to have the mags when Specials of Glasgow (?) and PB mag built the first one. Showed all the mock ups of the tubing etc. Lovely bike . Looking forward to seeing your build. ready for Summer ?
  6. Almost like direct drive between output shaft and rear axle. Rather than rear axle being lower then the output shaft and producing squat of rear end under hard acceleration. Seems weird how manufacturers don`t use similar system on road bikes
  7. We need more two strokes on the road. Nothing beats smell of Castrols finest as you ride down the road.
  8. The swinger pivot point is really interesting. So much wider than a normal bikes. I assume that is to stop flexing at the pivot point ?
  9. Looking forward to seeing the build come together so am following to see it as it goes
  10. You could mount this on your mantle piece and just look at the engineering involved in making this. Tis a Beauty
  11. Enjoying the build on this. Magnum 4 is my favourite Harris. Going to watch this and see how it builds up
  12. The Martek frame and swinger look the dogs nadgers. looking forward to seeing this build.
  13. Lovin this build. What AC DC Tig welder did you use to do the welding ? When you see fabrication like this it gives you and idea of the direction to go when start a project. Nothing is impossible with right mindset. Going to watch this one
