Thats a lovely piece of work.
It puts me to shame,as I have a big milling machine,lathe etc,which I dont think has even been plugged in this year!

Nothing as cool as yours. :D Ive made a start on making hubs for a rear car wheel conversion. Its an 8x18 (240 tyre),but I havent a clue as to what Im really going to fit it too? I just fancied a few hours at the lathe!
I cant believe somebody as clever as you cant work out how to work photobucket? :D
Mind you,having said that,the new format they have is terrible!
I'll keep my eyes peeled for progress. :D

What we need on this website is the ability to put pictures straight off your smart phone directly on to the forum. I can download pictures straight onto Facebook from my gallery, when is the website going to be updated now we don't get a mag any more? I want to put more pics on the site but it needs to be more user friendly. Buzzard.

I'm doing a rear disc conversion for a Z900 bike I'm building for a customer. 4 pot pretech caliper fitted to carrier bracket I've just finished machining, all fitting in a ZX600 Ninja swinging arm with 5" spoked wheel and Z1000 rear hub, more pics later. Buzzard.

Very nice, are you making the torque arm for it, or modifying a
z1000 a1 / a2 one to fit or the ZX600 one?
