Yes I am the new guy and I have a bit of an obsession with these things.
So I thought it time to share a little bit.
so here it what I have been piecing together for about the last 8 years or more I have lost count of the days and the dollars!!!

That looks really nice!

Any more pics?

Yes belt boy there are many pics but they are going to take some time to put together so I can upload them.
But I will try to put something up soon.

Eight years! I hear you

You have a nice collection of parts - period forks, wheels, brakes etc. that will make it into something pretty special!

Great looking bike, looks like you are almost there

Thanks for your comments guys
yes its almost there and yes and all the parts are the real deal very few reproduction parts.
marzocchi magnesium forks
Marzocchi Pulsar rear shock
genuine Verlicchi frame and swing arm
Brembo goldline brakes (Discs master cylinders & callipers)
Magnesium Campagnolo wheels 16" front & 18" rear
Veglia Tacho (correct markings)
and even the correct self ejecting Dzus fasteners
and the list goes on. It has changed a little from the pic above wheels are now gold again and the glass will have some colour on it very soon.
and the rest is just a bit tidying up of oil lines and Wiring and hey presto its done Phew!!! and I believe that it will be a bit special when completed so I appreciate your comments, only people who really know can truly see what's gone into this project.
Regards Al

The bike looks great! Do you have a supplier for those Dzus fasteners? Lou

ybaf+tt2 · **Posted:** Wed Dec 04, 2013 6:27 pm

sorry Lou I have just scrounged them up over the years from old racers.
But I have thought about using the self ejectors that the speedway guys use and seeing if the D-ring centre can be installed
It would not be exactly the same but very close but I have not tried it out yet it is still an idea in my head.

Hi Alan, I noticed you were struggling a bit uploading your pics to the correct place. I have loaded them into your original thread...
