Thanx again andy.Its my first attempt so ime quite proud of what ive done so far.The problem is that ive got a load of ideas in my head and not enough dosh in my pockets.I wanted to finish this one and start on a proper bobber with a big single thumper in it,like i intended to do in the fist place.Only last week a yam 660 engine went on e/bay for a mere 105 quid,all in working order.The average price of those are around 375 and upwards so i was well gutted.I also wanna try n make a cafe racer with a big single or a twin,and again build the frame and all the brackets myself.
