Hi Ted

No not yet

At the moment all my efforts are being placed in getting this toy progressed that  eats into both time and money



This is the rear caliper hanger that was a one off design that I got last week



And just finished off the carb build



Plenty of time yet as planning early retirement so will need stuff to keep me busy

Best wishes Al

Bring it on

A black and silver number plate is not yet recognised by ANPR due to the technology looking for dark characters on a light background

One thing for sure electric plane way off so all those piston engine aircraft will be running on  avigas for many years to come so just need to fill up at your local flying club instead

Yes if I had the money I would do one but Mito’s are getting thin on the ground

How long has he had that one done for only I took a piccy outside that big Honda dealership in Swindon a few years ago of an almost identical bike so I think I’ve seen that one before.my pal has an unfair ex one under construction. Always thought it a good idea

Not sure when Doug built it but it was before April 2019 as it was parked next to my LC when it went for a mot over at Treads

Not yet

Will need a complete rebuild at some point by Brooks suspension

But plenty of Mitos out there that has had an engine transplant and the 125 single removed has been replaced with a LC motor with no real issue as the LC engine is so light

My buddy Doug has one called a Yagiv and it’s just wow

Hi Ted

Big bore is on hold at the moment as have decided to commit all spare funds to my Tigcraft project to see how far I can progress it in 2023 as its a real money pit as got frame changes to be done by my local frame guy in March, and then a set of bespoke exhausts to be fabricated by Andy over at 2T engineering later in the year

Also in the middle of sourcing all the engine parts so I can complete the 350cc engine comprising of a LC bottom end with A/C barrels and heads and as we know LC stuff is all crazy prices

Alan, mate, what a thing! ................I'm spent!

The LC looks better every time I look at it, clear clutch window too, what a tart! I love it ;D

Thats a tight squeeze with those barrels but I take it you're running a full fairing, hence the cooling issue? Either way, thats going to be an interesting ride, bet you cant wait? Especially as we all have a 90% 'complete bike' in our headsso have expectations etc. I was lucky when I put the Ducati together a few years ago, I was on garden leave and it was like a full time job and was kind of being paid to build my new ride but that looks like I'd rather be playing with that than working. It must be killing you ;D

That's really coming together though and looking great for it. What are those wheels and do you have a link to that headlight per chance, just for a comparible mooch, yer know ;)

Who's the portly chap wearing yer jacket though? Have you a brother? ;) ;D ;D
Thanks Roo

Yes it’s a very tight squeeze so got my frame guy over soon to discuss opening up the trellis in this area to allow for the wider finned barrels

Went the AC route as no place or space for a rad

As for fairing planning it to be a naked bike like a Ducati monster as it would be a shame to hide away that lovely trellis frame and ac engine

Wheels by the way are KTM 390 Duke

Also jacket is a good excuse not to eat too much at Xmas

Best wishes Al

Ps led light on the yellow peril is a eBay item and here is the link

Hi Roo

Hope you are well

Ok here are some pics but progress is slow

(Sorry Brian for the post hijack)

Now finally got a set of LC cases but going to fit 350AC barrels and head to solve my engine cooling requirements

Got the correct KTM duke front wheel coming and a set of engine side cases and planning for a local frame builder to do some slight changes to the frame to accommodate the AC barrels as they are wider than the original LC as shown in a couple of pics

Enjoy and happy Xmas












Ps bit of yellow bike porn too as it you and bought a matching yellow speed block leather jacket the other day

Some more pics of how I routed my hoses to suit my Dekelvic exhaust down pipes to keep things nice and tidy
