Fringe wrote:Thanks,
A Punisher Skull Logo would look good on yours

Yep your right there matey! but my seat is now foam due to having problems with the foam on I made...

Fringe wrote:Yr cartoon is coming on too
Should have it ready soon

Cool! I look forward to seeing it!


I sorted the problem with the fuel/ breather, it was the fuel cap, I think it got clogged up with all the layers of paint I sprayed on it & blocked the breather in the cap, nothin a good soaking in petrol over night couldn't sort out!

That'll teach ya not to be so generous (with the paint).
Seriously tho, I'm glad ya sorted it
Still a shame about the paintwork tho

Yep I won't be spraying another fuel cap..... Ever!!!

I gotta sort the tank out next as Streetfighters mag will be comin for the photo shoot soonish. The editor contacted me again today to ask if I would like to have my bike on there stand at a bike show in august in exeter... Of course I jumped at the chance!

Yep thats the one! its about 30 miles from me, I've not been before as I've been to sick whilst living down here.

Nah there gonna call me to arrange a date, I told them about the problem & said I need to get it sorted before the photo shoot.

Thanks grim1 !! I never expected that it would end up in the mag let alone on there stand at a show!

I'm resigned to the fact that mine will never be good enough but it is something I've wanted for years.
How SAD that must sound

You leave my bleedin heal plates alone!

Cheers Fringe me lad!

Yeah I hear ya but to be frank I think if you have a little bit of artistic creativity & the funds to follow it through anyone could build a bike good enough to end up in the mag! I've just been lucky that my wife helped me out otherweise I couldn't have afforded it!

Big UP Mrs Griz

Thanks bud, there great! & your welcome it was my pleasure!

Great being able to see all the details now.
Spot on buddy.
I know there were some remarks about it needing sorting before; so is it me or does anybody else agree that the exhaust pipe angle looks right now they are used to seeing it?

Not really, I think it will really finish it off when it's had it's nip and tuck.

Griz - That spring clip on your chain has to go, but once more

Great job - outstanding!

Blade of the month anyone?

Can she help me out to? I'll make the bike and the tea!

Damn! That beast looks better & better every time I look at it!
Awesome! Absolutely awesome!!!

Griz, you are a legend! The Punisher is the dogs danglies mate.

Thanks Alsie, now I gotta start the doodles all over again to do the Punisher Justice
Them Pix are AWESOME as is the bike.
Any word from the Mags?

Thanks mate, yeah I'm in 2 minds over the can, I'm pretty sure I will sort it when I can afford to though as it's the one sticking point I have with the bike.

WTF???

Are you mad?

What's planned next then?

The SF cover will boost it's value too!

Take it the building bug has biten then Griz?

I bet your misses aint best chuffed mate.Is it because you have turned it into a show bike and it has become a liability to ride it anyware and leave it.I guess you have to be too carefull nowadays and not to mention the rain and keeping it clean.
