Well, after 25 years here in Southern California and creating over 50 machines in many guises, each old resurrection I try and get into and finish a non-running left alone Honda, becomes harder and harder to know what to do with her these days, but if I found super clean models, then I could just […]
It’s that time here at the shop to let some of the bikes leave the stable, this is one great thorobred to be honest and I have put many cool parts on this machine, and it is very unique to the many that I am sure you have seen on the internet and in magazines […]
Spent a bit more time on the 1978 YZ400 Yamaha Moto Machine over the weekend, and I got to admit I am happy with the way she is looking right now, I like the yellow rather than the European White plastics option, I think it’s a warmer color to be honest, albeit all too similar […]
I have always loved 2 strokes, the sound of the “Ring a Ding Ding Ding” of the motor, the smell of vegetable oil filling my lungs, the never-ending power band as you lift the front end and wonder if it’s ever going to touch terra firma again, and for a long time I have had […]
Well, the original airbox is destroyed from being sat outside for many moons, also I have never liked the look of the stock plastic bread boxes unless it was a restoration, so I thought I may as well fit some Aluminum Bellmouth Velocity stacks to fil that void up under the frame and protect the […]

I have just completed another machine here at the Barn and of course, it’s a CB750 Honda, but this time an old 1975 F model that I had in pieces in boxes that were in the barn and some parts were outside, Just trying to use up parts that I have accumulated over the years […]
Time really does fly by these days and I’ve not had a chance to do much blogging on the website recently as my pc took a dump and it will not restart, so I have been using my iPhone and iPad to keep in touch with customers and also with modern technology, lots of hackers […]
Wow! Here we are almost through March andI have so much to get done in the workshop, but, there comes a time to stop and have a cuppa and reflect on life in general, I had a Mild Heart attack 13 years ago and that was due to stress and anxiety caused by working 84 […]
Well, I seem to be trying to do too many things in one go some days and must learn to relax and get to a slower pace and then get it all done. LOL! Easy to say but they do say that integrity is the winning ingredient in the race for complacency , and to […]
