First time I saw this pic, I thought it was Henry Cole for a split second

So I may have acquired a Kwak JMC arm from Bridlington today and a slingshot arm with JMC slots and brace welded on from Southern Yorkshire Land earlier in the week.

The 1100 slabby one I took out of the chocolate box project is interesting as it has a eccentric ride hight adjuster. As does the one I picked up today.

I know that bike, previously owned by a thieving scrote who tried to steal some parts off a mates bike. I presume he sold it on not long after as he would of inevitably got rammed off it. It didnt have the sidewinder or USD from end then though, think it had a RSV seat unit on it.

I had a JMC framed z900 for a bit, have to say compared to other aftermarket frames it was shite, i found it very cramped and after a few laps of a trackday i broke it and sold it as it handled like it was hinged in the middle.

There was one for sale local to me last year, 750 slabbie lump and running gear, £500, no takers.

Late 90's if my addled brain is right, the trackday was a corporate event when i was doing a bit of work for MCN. I lost a lot of stuff in a workshop fire but i'll have a look and see if i have any pictures. I know after i sold it, it had a 750 slingshot motor put in it, cant remember the frame number but it did still have the WP shock in it when i sold the roller to a chap from Norfolk way.

According to the Log book this had a 1200 Bandit motor but was first registered in 1990.

That,s Got "The Tank Shop" Look 

 i seem to recall John made the original Spondon Tanks 

[clivegto]

Aquired a set of adjustable supper bike yokes of kwaka fitment I was going to use on another project even got Sam to make me a stepped yoke for the setup but plans changed as they do. I'd now like to use them on the JMC frame with a set of Gsxr 1000k8 forks which measure 50/56 & the yokes measure 52/58. Ordered some aluminum tube and made spacers up so the forks fit the yokes. Just need slots cutting into them now to fit the forks.
