Nice one... I was thinking if the hoops with all the mini props on folded downwards and not upwards, Steve could market it as a fancy shmancy lawnmower 🤣🤣🤣.... this time next year Rodney, he'd be a millionaire 😁
No seriously, looks brilliant and if he's built it in his garage all the better.
Thanks for sharing Bill.. cheers, Michael

Is my good name being taken in vain...? ;D,
As i can't get #8 started at the moment ... i think this may a project too far  :-[

Aye Steve,

No taking your name in vain, I just thought that all those loose rivets came to mind?

As for #8, do you wish to hold a therapy session?  :-X

a therapy session is in order Bill, but it'll be next week sometime. i am currently doing a stained glass project, and i have to get it finished on wednesday, the last course session, and i've probably got another 6 hours work on that. then i'll need to wait for bits to turn up for #8 ..... fuel tap kit, link pipe on carbs.
and ... any idea where i can get a rear brake lever return spring (90506-20223).... no stock in europe or japan, my man at tinklers says it may never be available... he could try ordering it but it may take months or years. strange, as its listed on a lot of bikes.
once i get the fuelling sorted out i'll be ready for a session on the couch Bill    :)

Aye Steve,

Will send email re: spring 90506-20223.

In the meantime, good luck with the stained glass.

Toodle pip, Bill

re reading this post, i feel it might be better to say 'i'll be ready for a therapy session', just to avoid any misunderstanding  ;D

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Be assured there is NO misunderstanding!  ;)

Just been on the phone to Fowlers, same story as your man at Tinklers, even though they had an eBay advert that contradicted there website and perported to have 8 of the little blighters "available" for sale.

Measurements to follow and suggest a spring assortment from a local motor factors or online spring manufacturer's website.

Off for a canter!  ;D

Toodle pip, Bill
