Building an Inline Four Project out of bits and parts laying about.

Well, I still have not made my mind up how I am going in the design part of this ride, I thought I would use my phone and record a few sessions as I continue creating a machine that I personally like and want to use and I am sure that it will go through a few guises before I get on the right track, although that’s half the fun of it.

So here are a few videos I have cobbled together and hopefully you will like what I am trying to achieve, remember, Rome was not built in 7 days.

Here is Part three of the video that I have just done, still no idea where this build will go, and if it will stay the same guys, thats the fun of creating something.

 

So follow me along the way and see what happens, some good stuff and I am sure some bad but I hope I at least entertained your time on your screen and maybe gave you a little insperation too?

Fiddling about in the Barn.

Well, I am sure that you lot must have some parts tucked away somewhere?  With…. “ I will get to it later” Tag attached to it, and I am no different.  I have an old depressed 1974 CB750 Frame that has been sitting around and needs to be given a New life, so- I thought that I would look about my place and see if I can at least mock something up, no idea how it will go, I may change the design a few times but, people ask me what I do at home and I thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to share with you lot out there what I do in the Barn.

So, I thought I would just use my iPhone as chat as I try and do a few things to this old frame that I have, sorry if it gets a little boring but you can fast forward if you doze off.
