Funny ain't it. As I remembered it it had a hand change on the tank, which was one of those flat tanks, leather belt drive and sprung saddle! Or is it just that it seems to belong in the 20's, we've been waiting for it that long. Facicious, me, surely not! :lol:

So is it going in a Rastafarian colour scheme then. A bit of Yellow and Green to go with the Red, or just psychedelic. :lol:

Here are the calipers having been powder coated

Unfortunately I removed the anodising from the inside when really it would be best to leave it

Phil,

be honest.... how many times have you been unable to find some of the parts because it has been so long since you put them away? .... and combined with your age addled brain it is going to make it a monumental memory test for you to get to the point where you can put it all together :lol:

:Ball Kick: You can be so cruel, whatever your name is

Mind you, notice there are only 6 bolts as I can't find the other 2

Not lost.............misplaced because I put them somewhere safe :D

Phil, I am just judging you by my own standards......... since I moved house I spend hours looking for things that I cant remember where I put them!!!!!! took me over an hour [on and off] to track down my jump leads on Friday!

so I then add in your seriously advancing years and I can only estimate it must be 10 times worse for you :lol:

It's 5 time worse, not 10 :roll: :roll: :roll:

Now that is some serious bikeporn

You have no chance of seeing my bike looking like that, sorry (That's assuming you get to see it.....................ever)

May have to sell it rather than leave it like it is :thumbdown:
