No me and my friends didn’t make this from scratch. We inherited it in a basic state from a mates paddock, where it had been sitting for a couple of years. We just had to clean out the engine, add a fuel, electrical and air systems, weld up the frame a bit, tyres and the addition of the all important rear mudguards. No one likes being covered in cowpats.
But after all that “prep” it went pretty hard. Well you would expect so with a 5-speed, 550cc, Yamaha, inline four strapped to the back of it. After a good season of running it was sized and demoted from the garage back into a paddock.
