Job done

Had 2 days off went to a dog show at the NEC , so today i went up to work to have a few hours on the trailer.
I got some mudguards off Ebay but they were not there so i finished off a bit welding and capped a few holes in the box section and laid on some primer....now what colour to do it????

Well it had to be "Bills Bullet" black silver and alloy!!

And this is it bizzy drying and waiting for my mudguards to arrive.
I will need the trailer to take it to the DVLA to say it has been changed back into a bike from a trike plus it is going to be handy for weekends away in the Lakes,fill the jeep full of camping gear and have the bike on the back.

OK for my next trick?

ready for paint

GRIND WELD FAB GRIND WELD

Stop for the front wheel jams in just nice,gets a good hold

Had a couple of straps tieing it down but did not feel right,cant use straps on anything else for fear of damage! SO i had 2 spare holes in the engine mount drilled a couple of holes in the trailer and just bolted the soddin thing in! sorted

ramp made from some metal walkway we had lying around from a job

Going to try and get in tomorrow night and give it a lick of paint

appendix

 well am back,i needed something to tow the bike on.When i go away it is normally miles and have a couple of dogs with me,so a trailer was to be had.Cost a bloody fortune.Few phone calls and my mate gave me this

and here we are a couple of hours later.Out with mr makita and it was well bobbed.Try and get it finished tomorrow then i can get the bike away from work

Power up for a good yarking!!

Well this is the last post before i hand the reins back to Mr Qmaster . Just had to fire the old girl up and give it a yarking , you know how it is test for bits falling off and how strong the chain etc etc.
So it is back to Brian and his Bullet Bobber.

STOP THE CLOCK

All done,job's a gudden

Tour

A bit of a tour around

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!

THUMP THUMP.....................

Time please

ok lets get this sorted i need to hear it running

made an adaptor for the dial gauge,simples

Air

outside to get a bit air around it

Can o worms

Started on the wires,can of worms

Got hold of some black cloth tape i think it blended them in quite nice

Not to bad up front

Owch

New sprocket arrived,bet Hitchcocks was thinking what the hell motor i am running

Fitting it did not go as to plan

Update

Not a lot to see now as the bulk of the bike is together,few bits on the engine tonight,carb has been rejeted for filter and pipe.

Hard wired the headlight and moved if further down.

Got the primary side on but when i counted the teeth on the gearbox it was 16 i NEED a 20...damm damm damm...pull it off tomorrow i think the new one will be here

Rear guard

Not much time today so only a few jobs done.Brake pedal needed a s/s spacer and a s/s spacer for the brake/silencer mount were made and fitted and i decided to bolt the rear guard on.

With me not using a front guard i had cables flopping around in the wind and 2 unused guard fixing points,i was going to chop them off but not sure of the internals of the forks i decided to use them for a bar to hold the cables and fill the 2 holes up.Up on the yoke the clutch and brake cables were flopping around so a couple of s/s P clips tied them up.On the other side of the fork is a smaller bar to hold the tax disc and fill the other 2 holes up.

So far so good

This is the state of play as i left it tonight,not much more big stuff to go on now.Got to rejet the carb build up the clutch and pop the rear mudguard on then the wires.

Backend looks like it is coming to life

Legal bits need to go on like mirror

Tax disc holder

And silencer

OCC

My gaffa is a big fan of Orange County Choppers,he said to me today Pauly would have the primary on by now,so to days job was to stick it on for him!!



Had a bit polish of the case as well and drained the oil out,i will get all the messy bits out of the way before i start bolting on the shiny stuff.Went around with my wee paint brush painting all the nuts under the bike black and a 2 touch ups were i scratched the engine.I was a bit worried how ruff the motor looked being black as the castings are very lumpy,but as bits go on you can not realy see much of the motor anyways.

Front end looks nice and simple even with the "i switch everything" switch.Need to find a home for the hooter.

Big Bloody Lump

Got the Iron in tonight,not as bad to get in as it came out.

Off side,need to get to work with the polish on them there case's

Near side,still plenty to do here as well,got a load of bits to try and improve the clutch.

Front,rear and top stainless mounts with stainless nuts and bolts,keep the polishing work down to a min.

Rude not to

Called into work tonight to see if the paint was hard and the tank sealer had gone off.Well i could not resist had to try it on the bike "would have been rude not to"

Need to get the engine in

The back and front mounting bolts for he tank

Wanted to do summit with the oil pipe,i got this idea off Mr Qmaster from his petrol pipes,this is woven heat shrink
