And me a new metal shed! What I didn’t realise is that it came in just one box! That took some putting together so the bikes saw no action this weekend.

And me a new metal shed! What I didn’t realise is that it came in just one box! That took some putting together so the bikes saw no action this weekend.
Had the K0 out for its first run of the year after its winterisation, it was good to be out and about.

Excellent news Tony, I would definitely say the bigger garage but easy when it’s not my money! Look forward to seeing you back on the road.
Got the CB360 stripped down to the frame and have started to refresh some of the painted bits, not a back to bare metal and respray or powder coat job but a good freshen up.
Nearly time to get...
I love that, I keep going back to a C11 that’s for sale but I’m apprehensive, never having had an old Brit bike before the running and maintenance does make me think twice. I’m not hugely experienced...
To be fair Dave, I have heard that and I haven’t actually ridden one, I think Tony said that his was a comfortable ride for him. I had a Triumph Sprint ST 1050 and even that became difficult for me.
If you can cope with the riding position, I can’t see past that Thruxton FE, what a looker!
Neither my knees or wrists could cope for long these days but I wish they could!
Looks Ace!
Were you never tempted to call it a Throbber?
Thanks Tony, things are ok and I have my head around everything now. It’s not the worst it could have been but it has given me a slap around the chops.
It’s good to see you posting and hopefully...
I love this thread and am really looking forward to seeing the end result of Enochs efforts, that looks lovely.
I’ve spent a bit of time lately getting a shed / workshop / bolt hole sorted for me...
I’ve been looking for something similar myself and thought this looked ok but I haven’t got any further than looking. I would also be interested in any real life experiences....
Same here, I bet I was wrong!
Love it there Tony, one of the first places the instructors took us when I took my lessons. Me and a mate were there a few weeks back, a cup of tea and a bacon roll always goes down well.
That’s all sorted and done. All of that had to be in place to apply using form V55/5. From what I understand there are a small percentage that are selected for inspection rather than just issued a...
Has anyone had experience of registering an import? I applied for registration a couple of weeks ago and received notification today from DVLA that it needs to be inspected. Is this likely to be...
Yeah, I’ve spoken to Charlie a few times. He does have some nice stock through.
Thanks Steve,
Noted and appreciate the advice.
There a couple of bikes I have in mind but nothing decided. I’m edging towards a smaller bike more for ease and manageability more than anything....
I wish Duncan!
Next up will be a tiddler as a bit of a restoration project. I’ve never got my teeth into anything more than some pretty basic spannering, so I fancy the challenge.
Food for thought there, I presumed mine wouldn’t be suitable being Matt. I like the idea of the full treatment on the T120.
Without a doubt.
Thanks Tony, birth year bike and you know the saying, definitely looking better than me!
We are off to Norfolk tomorrow and I have been pleading my case for Kate to take the...
I’ve finally had a chance to enjoy the recent better weather. Today I finished tinkering, fitted new plugs, plug caps, points, plate and condensers.
The old girl is running as sweet as a nut now....
I honestly don’t think that you can go wrong with either approach Tony, eminently customisable or stone cold classic.
I have kept everything that I have swapped on the bike, I have a sneaking...
Thanks Tony,
I’m really happy with it, there are a few more farkles that I could add and there’s always a mod or two that would be nice but overall, it is where I want it. It is just so nice to...
There really is nothing quite like it to blow the cobwebs away

I very nearly bought the 100 piece as a smaller, easier to manage set. Currently comes with a free advanced screwdriver set as well as the trade 25% off, I still might do it. I’m not sure you can...
