Collected a rigid Triumph frame today. It had previously had a T120 lump fitted. This Z440 engine looks like it grew there though!!

Picked some old british tanks up this morning that I won on the 'bay, thanks Bryn. Not sure what they're off, or what they're going on!!

Picked up most of a GPZ750 in bits yesterday (thanks Daz). Don't know what form it's going to take, or when it'll get built, maybe a winter project!

Bought a pair of headlights at Stafford, but thought they looked too long. Chopped 20mm out of one and soldered it back together, should look ok when it's painted.
