Beautiful Bikes,One day I will have one.

Yup, i'd love one. Do they sell the frames separate ? I have a nice triumph bonny engine out in the shed, with a big bore kit and a norton commando crank in it, looking for a frame to sit in.

Loads made for different markets but only 120 allocated to British Market. They've had a couple at the local shop over the years .Basically a T100 with single seat, matt green paint, blacked small headlamp and 19" wheels.

I have all the bits to build that mmmmmmmmmm, even the nice black and white number plate, wonder how much the kit is.

Though isnt it a bit naughty swapping the number from the origional frame, used to be called ringing when I were a lad.

 

[Morrisman]

Still is illegal to swap numbers etc. Nobody seems to worry about it, there are dozens of feature bikes and cars in magazines which clearly state the frame was built or heavily modified, suspensions totally swapped out, and they even post pics and number plate to document it all for Vosa.......

Looks like the British motorcycle industry is not dead yet.

Triumph
Matisse
Norton
CCM

And a few other smaller ones

I was in charge of disabled men welding wheelchair frames that were as good if not better welders than in the video.
