Well Taylor SOLD this one ages ago now it seems ? Used the money to finish off his house extension  Embarrassed
Fast forward to Febuary 2019..."DAD I'm bored,I've seen this on eBay,what d,ya think?"  Angry
I think .." Here we go AGAIN ?" So on the 2nd of Febuary I find myself being taken to Canvey Island to pick up a rolling frame project ..deju vue  time..
What looks like an early Hardup Choppers frame,rather chunky,bandit 600 engine,front end and back wheel? All for £380..
Popped into Southampton on the way back home..he wanted to see another bike..a 1200 bandit running driving ( MOT just run out ) has a donar bike Grin up for £950?. The young guy didn't know much about bikes..and his girlfriend had slung him out and wanted the bike gone! so Taylor didn't take long to haggle him down..£700 agreed including delivery  Cheesy
Skip forward 2 weeks..17th feb..so I pop round to Taylor's to pick up the front yokes..in the mean time he's built a new workbench ( he sold mine just before Xmas  Shocked,wasn't going to do another project ?) and started stripping the donar bike..

I've been given a list of things to do/ sort out..headstock is a harley one,so correct bearings have been purchased..just need to redo the stem bolt..basically machine the top ( replicate factory settings) but 10mm further down the shaft..buy some VERY thin masking tape for doing curves..and something else ?
