Finally got the Triumph electrics the way I want them. Everything but the coils under the tank.
Took some doing. Always the little things…
““ Is it just me, or are Emgo aftermarket products just crap?
Just realized the Triumph light switch on my current build has failed after couple of months and its never even been used in anger.
Should have known it would fail. The design means it shorts super easy and it looks like it was made from melted matchbox cars.
Fucking done with the resto Brit bike thing. Next Brit bike I get is getting modernized. ”
Edit: looks like the malfunction was between keyboard and chair as they say in IT departments. Nonetheless - I stand by my previous assertion - the thing looks a component from a cheap tin wind up toy.”

80’s skate decks.
I remember all these boards - what I was skating on when I was a kid.
If you haven’t seen it already, check the doco on Bones Brigade (on Netflix instant), called, eponymously, Bones Brigade.
I liked the Skull Skates decks - even if the Powells and the Visions were better. Guess I was always a sucker for skulls and shit.

KZ1000 with zx7 front end, box swingarm and zx7 rear wheel mock up.
Just figured out that the swing arm is called a “clubfoot swingarm” - a drag item, (came with the lot of Z/KZ gear). Not the most politically correct lot, those drag boys…
