Del, it’s been an absolute pleasure to watch you work over the years. You’ve repeatedly shown the results of hard work, skill improvement, and artistry all combine to yield beautiful outcomes. This project is probably the best example of that. A simply stunning bike.

@Moonfleet41 3 жыл бұрын

Many thanks indeed Kyle, that's very kind of you to say, we really appreciate such loyal and long term support, I didn't take the bike very far away from a standard trim, just a little alteration to the stance and then a full cosmetic make-over plus, of course, that cheeky wide wheel on the back, just proving that you don't have to be radical to be a really nice custom bike... sometimes less is more aye?!

@Eckascliovalver 3 жыл бұрын

Gorgeous looking bike! IMO everything is spot on, the paint colours, exhaust fabrication, upholstery, wheels, noise and the overhaul and small modification of everything else 👏🏻👏🏻 can’t believe it’s been 12 months. Well done Del 💪🏻

Thanks you buddy, that's very kind of you.. im really happy with it, subtle yet still quite an obvious custom bike.. looking forward to getting out for a blast.

When you first started this project I thought that I wasn’t going to like it. But as you’ve gone through it all I’ve liked it more and more. And now seeing it in all its glory.... I’m hooked. You’ve done such an amazing job! I love the front end and the wide bars. And the copper accents are awesome. Sounds incredible too! It really is a special bike. Thanks for this amazing series! Ride safe ! Ed

Thank you Ed for your candid and generous appraisal, it's been a fun project with nothing too taxing, and a result im happy with now.. it's often hard to convey you vision in the early stages, and its completely daft standing there saying "what im gonna do, what im gonna do", better to just get on with it and let the results do the talking aye. !

Thank you Aditya for those wonderful words... I greatly enjoyed this project, it's not quite finished yet, it needs to pass it's MOT test sometime this week, then need to get it out for a ride in the sunshine, because every project I've done always finishes with the grand final ride and a walk round at the church!... so that should be next weekend and then it'll be on to something else for a fresh project!

Sure thing Dean, thanks for those kind words.. and i would like to take on something more adventurous next time.. but that means a bigger budget, and ill have to sell this one first.. so maybe a short interim project on an old favourite for now, then it'll give me time to work out the right path next.. Bobbers are everywhere now, i built a willow green Harley Fatboy Bobber 20 years ago, (the one on the channel header) they're even out there as a kit with ready made frames and parts..so it's not really me now, just like building yet another hipster/brat/cafe/boxxer beemer thingy with bench seat and pastel paint... very nice.. but very common and unoriginal... i must push out into unfashionable new directions, or i won't remain interested.. got to keep that sense of the hooligan (like dropping a Rover V8 into a Mk3 Cortina)... that's real fun street custom stuff... So maybe a Tiger 1200 motor in a Thruxton... Not saying ill do that, again it all depends on being able to fund the bikes and the parts... but along those lines at least mate, the worlds already full of hipster bobbers.

Thank you, we hope so mate, the whole reason for taking the time and trouble to film and upload the videos, is to spread a little inspiration and light a fire under some enthusiasm for our fellow riders, it's all too easy these days to buy a bike off the shelf and just ride it... but they'll never be anything like the pride of riding a bike you've created yourself, if only a few mods and a little makeover!

Awesome, thank you Jon, appreciate your support through the project, I want to take on a more adventurous build the future, we'll need all the funding, we'll have to sell this bike to pay for it, but it will be worth it.. isn't ready for sale yet, and I'll have to find the right buyer to realise it's true value, so in the meantime am planning a fun little interim project, just to keep it boiling and keep me focused!

I drive a Thunderbird Sport, so this was very helpful. I can't handle welding or turning, though. I just removed the air filter box and tried to replace the filter with a K&N filter, but the filter box is deteriorated and won't open at all.

Hi Damion, thanks mate, and sadly no, this will have to be sold to fund the next big project.. not sure what yet, but i want a newer and bigger bike for a more adventurous build.. and all the funding is tied up in this bike.. so once all the shake down rides and snagging jobs are done, it'll be put up for sale. but i will enjoy a few fun rides first for sure.

Theirs no way to describe the Triumph triple cylinder engine as other than freakin 💥 BRILLIANT 💥. Much success with the pending sale. But I think you might just keep this one 🤷‍♂️. Cheers 🍻, G.

Hi Gabriel, thank you for those kind words and glad to hear you got your project done!... and you may be right, this could be a difficult bike to hand the keys over for, but it will fund the next big project, so that's a hefty incentive, just depends on finding the right buyer so we can recoup the investment!

Excellent job Del. Time to celebrate :) Been a pleasure watching all your videos. There's a lot one can learn from your projects. I was hoping to see an episode on carb balancing, but it doesn't sound like this beauty needs any. Seems to idle fine, isn't it? Well done!! and looking forward to hearing about the next project.

@Moonfleet41 3 жыл бұрын

Many thanks mate, and you're right, 9 times out of 10 carbs don't need re-balancing, and of course remember, if like this bike, they're running sweet and smooth, then DON'T TOUCH THEM because clearly they're correct and any minute adjustment you make will only throw the balancing out, it is the most appropriate application of the old cliche 'that if the cart ain't broke, don't fix it'...!
