I dont know if its that good really . I would recomend this site as a good place to get good advice all the same . Some of he guys here rebuild allot of bikes .

I enjoyed rebuilding my bike more than any other mechanical job Ive ever done in the past . Enjoy it my friend.

You on the road yet Jonny? Looking forward to some piccies of your finished steed.


Bought myself another @T over the weekend. Was advertised on this forum several weeks ago by Kitped. It was his father's bike and he was selling it to fund another project. Its in excellent condition and currently runs sweet as a nut. (Will post a few pics when I get the chance).
Took her out for a two hundred miler yesterday (Tue). Started from my home in the Swansea valley over to St. David's on the west coast of Wales, followed by a trip north along the coast through Fishguard and then inland to Lampeter and home again via the famous 'West End Cafe' in Llandovery.

The weather was fantastic for riding with cobalt blue skies from horizon to horizon.

Took the bike out tonight for a low speed test run 35km . Speedo working like new .

not problems just extended rear mudguard rubbing on chain and rad thermostat connection at thermostat a bit duff-works when I reach down and twiddle it - only have to do that when the bike is parked up in the shed and I have the engine running .



Have to re drill the bash plate hole's that I had welded closed because they had become elongated.

Well lads I don't know what I'm going to do in the evenings now . Very happy with every thing Ive done , was tempted at times to cut a few corners but really glad I didn't.

So after 35km well pleased . Just going to do some small runs untill Im happy with the bike then build up the distances.

Looking excellent m8. Its a nice feeling knowing there's nothing you now can't handle on this bike isn't it.

Bought a second @T last weekend Jonny and its identical in colour scheme to yours m8.

Was thinking of visiting your fair Isle this year bro as I can catch the ferry from Fishguard. If I do make it over the water we'll have to get together for a chat. Will keep you up to date of any plans to head your way.

Keep the mileage on the up and the pictures coming.

Cheers and well done.

Don't know if I said this already but any of the Africa Twin Chapter of xrv.org.uk will be found and fed if ye decide to venture onto my island.





You coming to the right place.
