What did you do on your "R" today

[Anonymous]

I have build a special RB the last months.
Found the chassis in Holland and the swingarm in the UK.
The flowed cilinderhead is from Germany and the pvm wheels are from a cb750F partsbike.
The complete seat was on a cb900F partsbike.
This bike has a new wiseco 1123cc kit and new keihin CR race carbs.
The engine is complete rebuild this winter.
The laser exhaust comes from my own cb900F, bought it new in 1987.
Everything has a fresh paint and the bike is ready for the road.
Very happy again with this nice RB.

Sorry Niccolo i don,t know what brand it is.
It can be metmachex but i,m not sure.

Wout.

Wout thanks anyway.
As you probably have your original swingarm down, any chance you can take some measure?
I’m thinking to adapt something as well and before buying one I’d like to see if it may fit.

If possible I would like to know

-length eye to eye
-width of the front axle
-width of the rear axle

thanks in advance

She lives and breathes again!! Fired up the D this arvo. No leaks (yet), oil pressure, volts, noise (the right ones) and a bit of that fresh hot paint smell -mmmmmm.
Doesn’t even sound like it needs a tune!! Idles, revs, but I’m sure it’ll need a bit.
Now for the body work bits. Only 30 months so far, a blistering pace.

I have bought a NOS tyre pressure gauge for my toolkit, all I need now is the cloth bag and the “C” spanner for the shocks.
£27.00 inc post from USA

Hi Wout – I hope those are not the three you are bringing to the IOM next year…

No Glenn for the IOM we will need 3 dual seaters.
May be the special RB and 2 RC,s.
