from the ashes rose a Phoenix

As always a plethora of information, all of which I will follow and report back........with pictures......lots of pictures.
........legends every one.........

 

Afternoon all..........just spotted this bike and just had to share it with you......in my humble opinion its the best I've see yet......just looks perfect........

 

I believe it's a T300 Legend or Thunderbird 900...........

 

If I can only get mine to look similar..!!!!!!!!!!..........

 

If you key ......ROCKET 3 by XTR..........all the spec and more pictures....

 

That's Italians for you.........it's a modded Suzuki Bandit tank too........

 

Aaahhhhhhh.!!!!!!!!!......small mistake......the chap that built the Rocket 3 is actually Spanish.......apologies to all Italians.....other nationalities are available...........

 

Ok fellas....big question.....can I fit a 2016 Thruxton R petrol tank to my Sprint frame.........a simple question I know and I throw myself on your knowledge the the wife of a biking on her husbands funeral pyre............Jennoe

 

That should of course read ....." like the wife of a Viking on her husbands funeral pyre..".........don't you just love predictive text........
And yep...some of the best paintwork I've see...........

 

Good evening my wise and valued friends............I believe the word I'm looking for is Eureka...!!!!!!!!!!!............I think I've discovered the carb issue..........if you study the following picture you'll notice that the small spring on the left hand adjustment is in the wrong place..........t should be between the two tabs and not between the screw and the tab.......it was therefore actually keeping the butterfly slightly open instead of closed........the right hand one the same. This has now been addressed and they will be fitted onto the bike tomorrow for another trial start...........wish me luck fellas........BANZAI...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Cheers fellas .........earplugs in about 11.00 am..........trust me when I say....if she starts..you'll hear me.........

 

Well..!!!!!!!!........there was definitely lots of shouting..but only in frustration...........still no .....Bbrrrrruuuuuuuummmmm.........
In the back of my mind I still think she's turning over to slowly.........not to worry.....back to the beginning......
