Afternoon,
I'm recommissioning my standard 4LO and it needs new tyres. I was using BT45s, but i didn't get on with them.
I am thinking of either Avon Road Riders or Continental Classic Attacks, just after advice from anyone who has tried either of these.
Many thanks
Mouse

Stan Stephens did something like this, it was serialised in 'Motorcycle Mechanics' i think Mouse Did it run properly? It was built for a customer of his, i think it ran (try You Tube), afraid i don't know any more other than it had a different arrangement for the carbs, sorry Mouse |

Yes, being able to weld (especially ally) is a great skill and one i would love!
Choices with the pipes, i like the idea of ceramic coating, i guess you mean black, would look awesome, i have just had my hybrid barrels and head Ceracoated and it looks great.
The pipes on yours are going to be such an integral part of the overall look, especially with the 'crossover', great stuff!

Are you welding the pipes up yourself Steve (another of your skills!)? Would seem the sort of job where you need about six hands!

Such a neat solution on the shocks Dusty, this bike is still in the 'stunning' department!

A little more care and attention to detail wouldn't go amiss!
Looks fantastic

Hey Dusty, that was the right decision to go with the 'allspeeds', they look so right.
Can we see a 'square on' side on view, to show the length in relation to the bike, they look brill!

Yes, looks ace, hope the 'allspeeds' turn up soon, will the engine be complete then, just bodywork left?
