Re: Show us your old girls
1953 FLE ..... bought over from LA too many years ago ... as a complete bike, it was a total basket case .....
3years building every now and then, another 3years sitting in the naughty corner .... this summer I ripped into the engine as it was the 3rd year I had attempted to trust it ... puking its guts out the breather .....
as imported ... looks fairly innocuous ........
I kept the frame(de-raked & straightened), engine(complete rebuld), gearbox, floorboards/controls rear brake and oil tank ..... all in that list were worked on except the andrews gears in the box, studs, casing re-worked and selector top replaced.
I cant post any more pics the right way up... but thats how it is, well now the heads are in bits, just gotta slap it back together....
