Stuff of dreams

After selling the last chop, I quite fancied another cafe racer and have allways wanted a Vincent, I spoke to monsieur Godet in France, the man from Godet Vincent (http://www.godet-motorcycles.com/ ) and to get a NEW 1300cc electric start Vincent he said he would do me a special offer, is was £40.000.00 or $80,000.00, guess who doesn't have one (Me) , Fu*k they're nice though.











It's the start of the new project I've just bought

I can feel a Swedish chop comming on with a long front end mmmmmmmm

And the tank from my first chop is going on it

The electric Knuckle

After fitting a Tech cycle Panhead kit two years ago, it has just not been up to turning over the 96" knuckle (just like my back) so here we have a new Revtech 4 speed ratchet lid with ears and an Indian Larry starter kit, and it kind of fits, only a little bit more fabrication and bingo!
