I think it,s great , but for me the tyres would have to be changed , other than that I want one , a cafe,s been on the cards a while for me , I,m concerned I,d ruin a good bike by rushing it , maybe soon I,ll have a go !!!!

Mine came to a standstill since my last posts on it, life got in the way, it just needs rewiring and a few odds and sods sorting and hopefully she will come to life, she is tucked away safe and sound until I get round to finishing her.

Stevie maybe I just need to have a go , I,ve no real engineering knowledge or fabrication skills , but I,m sure I,d have a great time learning by my mistakes

if you are good with the paint side this is a cheep build.i do not know what he wants for the bike and i do not care .i do like it and have a xs650 i would like to go down this road with. all you need is a mechanically solid cosmetically challenged bike good with the old spray gun a hour on geek and other similar sites for the parts ,a lot cheaper than ebay and you can have a bike like this for a fraction it would cost to put back to factory.i like non-conformists,some big words in this post it must be the blood running back to my brain been putting a clutch in the daughters car, have you been that cold you stop feeling it till you sit down in front of the fire then it its you ,round two tomorrow i hope its pissing it down.

Horrid tyres, but otherwise a decent attempt, and so much better than most of the cobbled together caffs out there.

Trying to spot what might not be original.  I may be wrong on this.....probably am.... But isnt this a 400? If so, is this Mark Williams' 400N Tracker that he has been trying to sell for a couple of months now? Been reading about it in BIKE magazine. Mark Williams is Old School biking jorno - he started BIKE magazine way back in the mists of time.......It was a much more radical magazine back then..... GB |

Mark Williams. Pictured in mags these days with a toothbrush in his mouth? This bike image was lifted from a Brazillian 400N site on FB, GB......so unless he has a pad in Brazil, I don't think this is his one. |
