Rain forecast all weekend, but plenty to do in the barn

This time of year, even in Southern California, we can get rain, albeit a drizzle compared to when I lived back home in the UK, but- you can’t stop the rain and of course, we need it here in my area, so I think this weekend i shall get on with some work in the […]

The Matador – A 1978 CB750K that needed some TLC

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 […]

HONDA CB750 F1 Super Sport Cafe Racer FOR SALE $6999

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 […]

Fitting Bellmouth Velocity stacks to the old 4 Banger

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 […]

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 […]

Count down to Turkey day!

Thanksgiving will soon be upon us, but its a celebration that I enjoy food wise and of course, me originally being a Redcoat, people think it may bother me, but- if it wasn’t for that day- Oct 19th 1981, well I wouldn’t be here if my original country and planted the flag. So I celebrate […]

Back online after some glitches but all good

Well, what a frustrating few days that I have encountered, modern technology is great, until it takes a spiralling fall into the abyss. I have been pretty good on my computer over the years, with no training as such, I just worked my way through any problems and if I was stuck, my web guru […]

Up in the Barn for a little bit.

Well, I got the old Cold Lurgy, messed me right up last week to be honest, very similar to Covid, but tested and said negative, but im a weak right now and hoping to get my strength back as I have loads to do, I am more than willing to get some hard graft some […]
