Jasper; do you have any more pictures of the finished bike?

Nice carpet

Nope - but it's at the Motorcycle Museum next door to the NEC, I'm up there again in a couple of months so could take some more (we do shows at the venue quite regularly).

I remember reading about this bike years ago,it was designed for norton,but there were funding issues.
