Coming to a website near you soon.
Met Jack at the Wroughton classic meet today & took some snaps of his lovely little chop/bobber for the site.
He's a hotrodder turned biker. Nice guy. Just thought you might be interested. Write-up online soon.

I loved it. So clean & simple. He's busy building another one at the moment with 16" wheels both ends. The guy's only in his late 20s. Sickening isn't it. He's just joined the forum as JackBlack by the way. I'll string some words together tomorrow & ask Mr Yodles to create a page for it in the Motors, 2 wheels section.

Doing a burnout for the benefit of YouTube viewers, (an earlier incarnation).

   I keep coming back to this, the more I look the more I like it, great lines, one of those bikes that need nothing changing ( other than that filler cap of course, you just know that one day you will be going over it at speed )got a similar "feel" to the orange beeza in the current BC

I like the cap -just enough goofiness to be off-beat & quirky, without going over the top, (not literally).

Just a personal taste thing I guess. I still like it cos it adds just a little splash of non conformity to an otherwise sensible -ish build.
