My race bike...lots of bits...

[Grib]

Couch has been let loose with my (Ali's ex) race bike! I've been allowed to hold things where necessary :P We've found a crack in the frame by the headstock, so that's it now, it's being completely stripped, welded up/checked for straightness and powder coated :) Not much to them is there!

[HW]

Oh dear ... not much left of that is there! :o

I think I've still got some bits of Ali's engine stuck in my visor if you want them back!

Thanks for the offer, but we've got enough bits on the floor of the workshop to keep us amused for a while :D

You can't beat a good jigsaw to do on a winters evening or two.
You certainly have a lot more there than most of us had at this time last year

[Grib]

There's even less now, just a bare frame sat on the decking outside :lol:

And one hour this morning and I only have a frame in my hands, also made a nice race loom last night :)

[AK]

Loadsa time then:)

AK still had the Snot as just a frame - and was stripping the loom apart at the end of March this year, (bike only brought in early Feb) with all components finally getting together about 10 days before the 1st race... then he had to make sure it all worked:o

Tony, you can lose about 2lb from the wiring - if you need to.....

Happy stripping

C:roll:

We're trying to think of a colour scheme. All the old 851's are white frames with red bodywork, but that's not very exciting. I need inspiration :eureka:

[AK]

not pink/purple/orange/yellow - as we could clash:devil:

[Grib]

I'd quite like a really loud shade of pink :cool: with a white frame and wheels :roll:

[AK]

like the 'bike girl' team?

[Grib]

Ummm, not particularly! More like the dark pink on the Triumph Speed Triples, 'Nuclear Red' as they called it :rolleye:

Like that (below) :o
