Sad times Julie, but you are left with a manageable number of bikes!

Yes Johnny, 6 is a an ideal number. We had 16, possibly 17 at one stage, either our own riders, others fully restored by Graham ready for sale and others in the process of being restored by Graham, it was standing room only in places 🤣🤣🤣.

But no hallway ornaments!

That big hallway looks soooo empty Bryan, there aren't any bikes anywhere in the house now.... A house is not a home without bikes in it 😢😢😢

Only thing i can think off is either something between case and shell or the disaster of a bent crank, i have built engines with all black shells with no rotational problems
