Bit of a different job undertaken recently, a 2025 Triumph tiger 800, pannier racks are unavailable for this model, I designed and fabricated these from scratch, finished with a hardy 2k satin black, perfect to hold a pair of Kriega OS-32 soft panniers.

I'm a bit neglectful of this poor old page as i'm usually a bit busy with the spanners! But i've had a few requests from customers to see what i'm up to from day to day.

So,

One of this mornings jobs is a set of fork seals on a lovely zx10-r, unfortunately for my knees, we're trapped on the floor today as the benches are otherwise occupied.

Showa big piston forks, which i just so happen to have the special tools for.

Nearly there with the top end rebuild, my z650 was a bit of a heavy smoker so was time for some new rings. Measuring piston ring gap can be tedious but is a step that should never be skipped, fortunately all our new ones were perfectly in tolerance and didn't need adjustment. Freshly honed barrel, new gaskets and o-rings, valves lapped in and now just getting ready to shim it for the new kz750 cams which I've opted to install as a cheeky upgrade.

The 1978 z650 I built for myself last year, zx6r wheels, forks and swinging arm. Whole bike was stripped, media blasted and sprayed gloss black with 2k paint. All nuts, bolts and axles replated or replaced. Brand new stainless Delkevic exhaust system. Custom metalflake and airbrushed candy paint job. Rides way better than i could have hoped for, handles like a sportsbike and accelerates with half of the power of one đŸ˜‚

Been a while since I've posted on here, seem to be too busy in the workshop. Here's a Benelli that I fitted some new headstock bearings to, I was surprised to find they used ball bearings on such a modern bike, I measured them up and opted for KOYO taper roller bearings instead. The customer was over the moon with the transformation in steering.

Full steam ahead here at the moment, going to be a very busy year if this sun keeps on shining. This gleaming ducati is in for service and MOT, roll on summer time!

Got a good go at the z650 today, j model zx6 swingarm slipped in without drama. Now for the technical part of setting ride height and suspension geometry before fabricating the shock mounts.
