So after numerous challenges, some of which I solved with the help of DoTheTon members, my TR1 build is complete and its a cracker!
Its been shown at the Bike Shed Festival in London, and its also featured in Pipeburn and Iron & Air.

It took about 2 years to complete, all new parts are designed by me and some are made by me too.
Notable people who helped / made stuff for me:
Pete and Phil of Carrot Cycles for lathe work, cables and their brains.
Shane at STG performance exhausts
Ed at Core Motorcycle seating
Richard at TabIIclassics [hand made tank]
My old man for his trailer/driving
Noel Whittall for lending his lathe
and here is a short riding clip - its a gorgeous sounding exhaust!
