Well done mate - it looks and sounds gorgeous and its not sacrilege at all. You've now got my heart's desire - a motorway-capable Bullet! Its a brilliant job and you should be well proud of it.

What a beautiful job you have made of that little bike!
What is the origin of the pipes and silencers,? Are they triumph. It sounds good. It's good to see a well engineered little special like that
Did you use the original gearbox.
From listening to your accent you are not to far from where I am based
Once again ,Well made .
Regards. Kevin

Cracking job Steve.
Looks like the final drive sprocket is a bit far from the swing arm pivot. Any problems with this?

Steeveb,

A really good job, nice colour, you should be proud of yourself.

That engine looks like it was meant to be all along.

Hi all, thanks for the interest in the bike. The guys from 100% biker magazine are doing a feature soon, so there should be some nice pics to see. The exhaust downpipes are standard 400 twin and the silencers are BSA spitfire replicas, with a small peice of stainless inbetween. The gearbox is standard Kawasaki. I did have to use a small idler gear just to enable the chain to clear the new rear brake cross shaft.
