Supercharged café racer

#1

Post by Beav's »

Hi guys,

First thing, thank you for adding me . I bought my first plane Jane about five or six years ago now, but only started build something different out of it three years ago. So in this time I've slowly developed something completely different. Firstly I changed the rear to turret suspension, (like the BMW R50/60). Then I've strapped a M45 Eaton charger to it, building my own inlet manifold. After that my own stainless exhaust system, which goes through the swing arm. Then the vented F2 tank, the rear end,(which was a ten month build). The front end is Triumph Daytona, the front headlight is the back of the front mudguard. The rear caliper/ bracket is now an R6 brand new item with my old CCM disc. There are loads of other different items, but you get the gist of it! Hope you fellas like it? Nev.
