Looking nice Lore. What are you thinking for the tail section? Might be able to help you out. You could collect when you're over for TT this year...

The idea is to carbon copy the tail section that I have now, only trimming it on the front, to make it concave on the sides to match the tank side concaves.
Then leaving it without paint and just brushed as the tank...
A monstrous work.

P.S. the Master I'm attending has no lessons in the first week of June. Be ware.

Can you see it this time!?

Nibile · March 18, 2019, 01:40:57 pm

Yes, and I really like what I see.
Get in!!!

Great choice there Eddies!

Great to see some more action on this thread.

I hope I sell my car soon! Can't wait.

#2wheels2many or something..

More inspiration for Eddies in Built magazine this month

Eddies · March 19, 2019, 07:56:45 am

Ha, that custom bike is cool, funny lil front mudguard!

I had my mind set on a Suzuki DRZ for my first bike after my Yamaha DT for a long time... Was looking for a good off-road one with a set of supermoto wheels; but I decided the road is where its at for now, and decided to get a proper supermoto version and spend more time on the road for a bit.
I really fancy taking it to Scotland

New custom bike film coming out soon (not sure when)... Quite a few UK builders like UMC, DeBolex, etc as well as Shinya Kimura / Chabott Engineering, Maxwell Hazan, El Solitario...

Alas, my plan to do an illustrated thing along vaguely similar lines has been stalled for about a year. Along with plans to actually get a bike licence.

DAVETHOMAS90 · March 25, 2019, 02:26:07 pm

Yoss

I love the graphic for the BMW.

That's cool. I'll watch the trailer.

Edit: OMG fantastic stuff!

Lore will explode

Yossarian · March 25, 2019, 02:42:54 pm

The BMW is by Union Motorcycle in the US.
http://www.unionmotorcycle.com/bikes.html

It’s nice and simple and quite sparse.

Quite like this K100 too, which is at the other end of the meatiness scale. (Not by the same builders...)

DAVETHOMAS90 · March 25, 2019, 02:49:09 pm

Ha ha! That K100 reminds me of many climbers I know, now they've hit 50

The R100 is lovely. So is the Duc 900 low pipe.

Lore is very sad about it.

Yossarian · March 25, 2019, 10:44:13 pm

I’m assuming you’ve both seen The Greasy Hands Preachers, but maybe not.]

Shinya Kimura is in that too. His bikes are amazing...

Fingers crossed, I’m about to start working on a new project with a publisher who might be interested in this idea too. So it might end up happening eventually!

Good luck with it beast!!!

What?
No live timing this year???

"I'm sorry to say that after nearly a decade of providing a very well used and well-liked free service to thousands of TT fans around the World, the Isle of Man Government Department for Enterprise has decided not to license Duke/IOMTT to use the data that TT Live relies on.

We're extremely disappointed that this is the case, especially as there were over 100,000 users of the service last year. We're told an alternative service will be provided but we don't have any details on that.

Thank you for your interest. We hope you've enjoyed using TT Live over the years.

Please contact the Motorsport Team at the Isle of Man Government Department for Enterprise if you would like them to reconsider their decision."
