maybe it varies depending where you are from , but we do not call what we do "brazing" As far as brazing is concerned you heat up an area to be brazed introduce the brazing (brass) rod and it flows , you can push it along with the flame. we do "bronze welding" using sifbronze n.o.1 rods and a...

hi. may i just say firstly, that we only built the frame and rear suspension. the end result is down to the owner. here is a link to his website. http://www.taimoshancycleworks.com/taimoshan%20info.html

sorry are you refering to a build up of the lito? we don't build bikes for anyone, just make frames and classic racer parts. sorry

lol don't congratulate me, if i'd ended it when i said i would i would have saved a seat. :D will put one up tonight, thats tonight Welsh time...

well it's been over 7 days and just as i thought i'm going to save myself a seat, there you go, a winner. yes it is a Lito. they only built about 30 bikes, using some of the best parts available at that time. monark built many of the Lito's. so send me your address, and as the seat vinyl is...

I have seen similar design on a few dirt/flattrack bikes, the subframe looks like it supports a more upright riding position. Could this be a possibility ? it could well be ;)

it is a replica of a production frame, :) they were high qualiity motorcycles , mostly 500 cc however they only built a few of them. please note that just because most bikes on this forum are cafe racers, does not mean that this has to be a cafe racer.

the pics of the seat, is the prize and it is on one of our norley frames.

Folks i can assure you, it is not a featherbed frame. That would be to easy ;)

we usually only run these on brit forums, but heh time to branch out question... We were asked to replicate a frame . which we have done in the 4 pics below. What motorcycle brand and model is it for? Only 2 answers per person, if no one gets the make and model we will declare the winner the...

We used to make the slim line Norton frame as it is the best for a triton build. However the slim line has a reputation of "not all are created equal." Put two original slim lines side by side, and start measuring certain parts and the chances are the two will not be exactly the same. This...

although we start our manx and norley frames at the headstock, the shape of the tube on both frames makes it easier to then end at the headstock, this always caused probs getting the notching correct on the upper frame tube to headstock. untill someone noticed that the roller on the belt sander...

the guy is 67 years old and i've known him for years. he visits us about once a month just to see what we got in. we are frame and tank makers but usually have about 10 15 bikes in at anytime for repair, mostly 50's to early 90's. as a lot of shops won't touch them as many are twice the age of...

when you have to ring me up to ask me to recover your 2010 moto guzzi from the scene of an accident, an accident which was your fault, when you rode into the side of a car. but you save me a bit of time as it does'nt take me long to right down the mileage...

epoxy resin instead of polyester does away with the fuel doing damage, most aluminium tanks are lighter than grp ones hower. also as stated above you can add kevlar to the impact areas on the tank. however if you look at the prices of epoxy resin and kevlar it all starts to get as expensive to...

we get asked quite often , "Is a Triton a Triton only when it is in a Norton Manx frame or any Norton frame" A triton is a triumph engine in any norton frame. The manx frame is lighter than the old featherbeds so there is a slight performance gain. Many prefer the Norton slime line frame...

did'nt have my settings set up correctly. so was unaware that i had received a number of pm's which i totally ignored. Sorry, was'nt ignorance, i just did not look properly. :-[

you can often get a good deal from a saddler . or horsey maker of things . don't know what you call them. ;D
