The bits are really on their way! Evidence!

All the parts for my bike will be at Battistinis Open Weekend this coming weekend, 27/28 June. Whether any of it can be assembled in time for this is another matter, as it only arrives at Heathrow on Thursday from Exile. But I can't wait to see the Accurate Knucklehead motor more than anything!

The workshop (aka Dining room) is ready!

My dining room has been converted to a workshop ahead of the arrival of the Exile parts and Accurate motor. I am very excited now that finally I will get to see all my bits and pieces and begin the process of a dry SVA, then dry running, and once everything is working and fitting perfectly, then I will pull the bike apart and sent the bits off for paint. This is probably the part I will document on here. 

As you might know, the HotRod sports a 200 front tyre, so standard bike lifts can't cater for that. I got the guys at the House of Sickboyz Customs (www.sickboyzcustoms.com)to rework the front wheel grip so I could use it for all my bikes, Exile included. A lick of red paint will see it looking new again.
