Should have been on the case early Saturday morning. I put the key in the van at seven am,wouldn't start and things just went from bad to worse !I eventually got to the workshop at seven thirty pm. Got dragged out for a meal and ended up slaughtered. So after a late breakfast Sunday I got down to it.
It won't look like much but what you see in these pics took all day. It's been mostly setting up and positioning,although I did get the front end mostly sorted too ! What has become apparent is that you can't expect a crashed/mint bike to stand for two years without some corrosion and stuff.So when this thing is finally built it'll be stripped down to the bones again for a full frame and parts coating.
I've also just gotten a set of of used hubs too.The plan is to have them rebuilt with matt stainless spokes on heavy Morad rims. Here's the best bit - I'll use a 17'' rear rim and 150 TKC rear tyre on the front hub and jack the front end to match.
This started out as a rush job to ride the Stella again, but the serious end of this project looks like happening once I get back ? Anyways ? life goes on. One more weekend to get it rollin' Will he ,won't he ?
Edit : Oh and that little side wheel is coming off to make room for a 6" rim too.![]()

Been away for a couple of weeks on the Dommi outfit to Italy (nightmares all the way)
So first weekend in a while on the @.Visually not a lot of progress,but I got the bike running for the first time in 27 months (like a peach) then spent a day setting up the geometry of the side car.I have to say this - My NX650 outfit was built by proffessionals and although I'm loving it,this @ outfit was so well balanced from the get go that if the NX is 4 0ut of10, then the @ is 9 out of 10 for ease of handling. I can't wait to get it finished off !
I'm really hoping to have it ready for an MOT next week ? let's see.![]()
