I built this bike to look like the bikes often seen in the early 70's ridden by suedheads etc and then later on in the 70's by northern scooterboys
however i have decided its time for a change (been like this 4 or 5 years) so i thought i'd stick up a couple of pics before the change over
If you are building a similar style keep your eyes peeled as most of the add ons will be up for sale
The majority are original items
However there is nothing on this bike that wasn't available in the period it replicates
cheers
Early 70's style GP, Suedehead era
definatly with the back rest although i though the suedhead look was a skelly style ...geepee wrote:I built this bike to look like the bikes often seen in the early 70's ridden by suedheads etc

Looking good Paul, little less cluttered bit more sporty. Still pulling ok with that gearbox change?
Cheers Dom
Just wanted to make it more usable on a
Daily basis as it was a right carry on like it was
Am pleased with its new look
Stype is looking good, colours work well
How come you didn't use the other gp?

Bit easier to get down the side of the house as well
Time and money with the GP, was quite an easy tidy up rather than a complete from scratch build.
