You still workin on this one? I love this thread, hope it hasn't died.

i hope this isnt frowned upon, but this build has given my a mild errection.

I think that's called a "semi"(semi-hard)

Some call it a chub.

"Flag at half-mast", also.

Ha ha, hey guys, no it's still in my shed, I got it running to try the exhaust, and the gasket was blowing like *, then with Christmas coming, our * cold wet weather over here, then my little one turned one, and my shed has practically turned in to a recycling centre plus Iv bought couple old Raleigh racers, and a raleigh burner BMX? Not sure if you got them over there or what they were called?
Anyway here recent pic of my shed, you can see my ped in there

You need to go American-style and just burn the trash in your lawn. Or leave it in your lawn, as a status symbol. Show people you buy lots of stuff. That's what I do!

Retro memories...
I had a Raleigh Burner in Blue and yellow back in '84, though I think only the red ones were called burners.
Then I got a Raleigh Banana (12 speed?) racer in '89.

There cool bikes, and flying up in value, Iv just picked up an Oval frame mk2 black burner, and bought 2 raleigh record sprints, I sold my raleigh banana last year

Still here and not going anywhere, I have managed to make a rear rigid mount, all fits nice and left with about 5mm of clearance from rear tyre to frame so I'm on a winner!

But it is getting there, just need one weekend to complete it

Very cool. Had always wondered if you could do that with a steel wheel.

Glad to see your still on this one! One of my favorite builds here. Is that the motor mount or shock replacement?

Cheers, the wheel quite easy to do, but I don't know how it's going to stand up on the road with hardtail? The centre of these wheels are so soft it may bend?
That pic of the bar is my new shock replacement, been back in the shed tonight and painted my tank and slapped that on, really want to get this finished then make a start on my second one

Got the heat shields on the barrel, exhaust on which is a * as there is no room for anything and you need 3 hands to hold, push and fit bolts like a jigsaw!!!

Hopefully now none of this stuff needs to come off again

Well I'm up and running, made new indicator mounts so they fit round the exhaust, mounts are on and it sits on its own wheels, but think the oil pump is chucking too much oil in as its smoking way out of control, so going to try it on premix
