Patches
The guys over at www.embroidered-patches.co.uk hooked us up with some vintage chop patches last week.
Pretty nice quality, a good lot to deal with and at a price you cant argue with. What more need i say.
I will be throwing the odd one into orders, if you must have one they are in the store.
another vintagechop classic...
my bud ads came round today for a bit more work on his work bie. hes a courier and has stuck over 100,000 miles on this fazer in the last 2 years, brings it here when it needs anything odds and sods - dirty quick fixes always - its a rat in the true sense not in the "i stuck some shit on it" sense
like its got its front sprocket welded on coz the thread stripped out - classy fixes like that...
the side rack was a few months ago, well - he decided he needed a HUGE rear rack as well as the top box - doubles what he can carry, and the more he can carry the more he earns
so angle iron frame with a mesh base out of a skip he found that i tacked in. always fun hacking on his bikes and he normally even brings chips & battered sausage for dinner - hes a good man

Little Fella
got the little man drilled and plugged an on the jockey setup for the shovel - undecided if ill go with a tank shift or jockey at the minute - either way ive got a rocker clutch going on there and this little man will ride with me
Biltwell Riser onto R1 Front End
got some 1/2 inch UNC bolts, lopped em down, drilled em out and threw an m8 tap down them. run the threaded slugs into the bottom of the risers and voila - biltwell risers now fit onto my R1 front end for the twin panther
How Many Cables?
Front brake / hand brake all set up. and how many cables do i need to throw on the front end? clutch, front brake, hand brake, choke, decompressor, advance/retard. looking solid if a little busier than ideal

Rough Plan
Its a plan forming - no exact plans yet but from the maps / photos it looks like some nice riding. Bit more research then some pre-running and a plan will formulate.
Similar milage to last year
