Evening All, just wanted to say 'Hi'.
I've joined up because I recently bought one of Norman Hyde's old demo Hinckley Bonnevilles for a project. It's featured in their catalogue and came dripping in nice NH bits (AP brake, Ikon suspension, 904cc motor).
I'm going to take inspiration from the Mecatwin TT bikes and the Hammarhead Industies 'Jack Pine', hopefully it'll be good fun when it's finished.
I've recently fitted some CR35 carbs (I know everyone raves about the FCR's but Sean at British Customs advised that the CR35s were easier to live with) and it needs a bit of fettling.
It's off to Bob Farnham soon for a bit of headwork. Bob's advised that I get some Predator pipes, with that in mind if anyone has a set of Thruxton header pipes they want to sell for a reasonable price please let me know. I'm going to get the headers ceramic coated, so I don't mind if they're a bit scruffy.
Cheers,
Dan.
