Recycle Rebuild

[Andy Pickering]

Right the vijay`s complete..when i built it I only used the frame, every panel/ cable/ wire/nut and bolt/wheels/tyres have been replaced with brand new which has left me with a silver container full of a scooter minus the frame! WHAT TO DO WITH IT!

Hence project Recycle Rebuild so its started


Fabrication starts, Just gone quiet at work after 4 mad months so keep the fab lads busy



Its gonna be a slow build over the year, Oh and I will be on the lookout for a GP frame not (italian)as it will be frenched and dont want to upset anyone and dont want to pay a milion pound of junk bay .The plan is to use as much of the curryburner as poss.

[byron]

good plan.
or track down a genuine Electronic frame and use that ?
if the other rear runner is having the same lip, you may need to consider clearance for a lardy expansion ?

[Andy Pickering]

I will keep an eye on that byron cheers..Tomorrow will see if my press shop manager can replicate legshield runners but longer for the extended leggys..keep ye all posted...but the machine we use for all sort of trims and drips for the buildings we produce cost in the region of 200K so It better do?...

Legshields ready for blast/dip/and powder coat(just for paint base).


Headset losing its mirror holes..notice the hand holding it really has got a finger missing


And finally YES the expensive machine did it runners made ..but jasons is a good idea aswell.

Amazing machine yam, but bloody expensive tooling and its about as reliable as a lambretta ...only joking a lammys more reliable
