A few bike snaps from weekend

A nice place to hang out. Hackney Wick when the sun comes out. The Kingdom of Kicks store opens saturdays and sundays and despite the areas reputation for its trendyness, its still a rad place to visit on a motorcycle. Like minded bike people swing by and park up for a while and bikes are worked on roadside. It is fun. Click here for Kingdom of Kicks details.

#dgr Sheffield

Very good fun ride. We started at Mud Crab Diner on Ecclesall Road and went for an outing round the Peak District. About 60 miles with a few stops for tea, scones, fuel, helping stranded motorcycle trials riders, photos and a swift beer. Amazing views and some brilliant roads. Visit the north.

Thanks to everyone involved. Same again next year for sure.

Max's photos from London to follow...

BSA update for France ride #Southsiders

Been fine tuning a few things on the BSA to prepare for an mot, and for riding to the wheels and waves event in France. The Bike worked fine for the year, then lot's of things collapsed just in time for the mot. Front forks were a fail, bearings fail, on top of that the clutch said goodbye, fuel leaks, footrest swivel, and some other stuff. Managed to fix the lot, and create some light mounts and install a dynamo. Lights not sorted Yet but thats next on the list.
 Ghetto bike lift
 Epic fail, no damage


 Mocked up in a spare set of yokes.
 Got a vintage bulb from Taillight king
