How about I put the sissy bar in the middle of the carpark at Pete's show this weekend & you lot can fight over it.  Not into that whole 70s look myself, so you're very welcome to it. Twisted, you asked first, so you get first refusal. It mounts to the top shock absorber mounts & also bolts through the rear mudguard. One of the mudguard tabs has snapped off, but they don't show so you could carefully re-weld it & touch the chrome in with paint. I've got the tab. Yours for 15 quid? Will offset some of the diesel costs to drive to Preston & back! If you're at Pete's New Forest show I'll take it along. Measures 11 inches between the shock mounts & stands 23 inches tall. |

Okey doke. Handlebars are no good I'm afraid chaps. Didn't notice when they were on the bike, but they be bent. So I'm assuming there's been some bike/tarmac interfacing going on at some point. I need some long straight sections of 7/8" bar to step down the ends of Taz's trike bars, to take Japanese switchgear. So I'll cut 'em up for that. Bobbi, yeah, the Pop still comes first as it's on a deadline, followed by the trikes, followed by this. Taz's muscle car is on a whole different time scale! Like I said, this is just something to mess about with when I feel like it -might throw it together really quick, or spend years browsing autojumbles for just the right bit for it. Who knows.  |

Tis off now. It was bone dry -no wonder it'd only start with gallons of Easy Start squirted down the carbs. Tank's for Sale in the ...For Sale section if anyone's interested. |

I bunged a pair of 32mm Dellorto carbs with accellerator pumps on my XS lowrider. Went like a rocket but drank fuel by the bucketful.
