Very nice, but why, oh why, didn't he sort the top end of the motor first?  ???  As for patinating the tank etc, again I don't really understand why you wouldn't tell the sprayer, what finish you wanted.  ???

Bet it'll be nice and soft and waft along in top, with a wiff of fuel and a gentle burble from those pipes.  ;)
 Toodle pip, Bill

Just watched that this morning and besides the obvious engine it actually looked like a period factory made bike till the chap explained its all hand built by him using period skills and a few old Bmw components. I was impressed although why he hasn’t recommissioned the bloody engine as this point of the video who knows??
