WOW yozzer, your build is looking stunning, i have a couple of F1,s to do one will be standard , the other is going to be cafed, but i will be on a much tighter budget so whatever fits will do, just remembered i still have an F2 cafe racer to finish it is buried under boxes down the side of my garage , looking at your bike really makes me want to crack on and get something done, well done so far the bike is so cool

Reading this has sparked my enthusiasm again Thanks Yozzer, your build id looking great.

Where did you get the head work done, that's all I need to be able to put my F2 motor back together and drop the frame over it, iirc you're in Barnsley aren't you, I'm only down the road on the outskirts of Sheffield.

I'm going pretty much the same look, everything will be either black or polished alloy, using the same brakes but with spoke wheels, back from an F1, front is Suzuki, both with flanged Borani rims.

Hi yozzer,  just finished the seat so figured I'd send a pic or two.

[yozzer74]

Nice you've made a rite job of that have you done owt like that before ..

[JustcallmeMrT]

No, first go, but did a lot of reading and I've done some sewing before.  Leather was tough though, not easy stuff to work with.  Have to tip my hat to professional upholsterers.

[yozzer74]

Well you've done well I like the double stitching on sides

[JustcallmeMrT]

Thanks!

Lovely build!
Like the tanks and seat hump, your alloy guy is a star.
