HOOFAH!

Very nice bike. That thing has bee's knees that even bees must be envious of.
 
The only major fault I can see, and it's a big one, it's not in my garage. I hope you will rectify that soon. :roll:

Cash.

PS Anyone know a UK frame repair guy who can change the bottom tubes on a wide line, or where I can get my hands on some correct tube?
 
I like it! Nice innovations, belt final drive, automotive style alternator, FCR carbs. Is the motor solid or isolastic mount?
 
Solid!

Thanks for the comments Ron, yes, solid mounts, I dont think I would have had enough room for isolastics on a featherbed as they did it on the "featherlastic". One guy tried to talk me into an ofset crank, I opted for a standard one for now but maybe in the future I could go that route if the vibration is more than I can take.

Still a lot of work to do...

I've got the trailer all set, let me know when I can swing by to pick it up :lol:
 
Vintage races at Mosport...

Fastback,

If it's finished in time, I will bring it to the vintage races at Mosport in august, but I will have my own trailer and I **will** bring it back home :wink:
