I think she has been taking acting classes!

Looks fantastic mate

At the risk of sounding totally gay... I wanna see more of the bike not her! (and the mrs is sitting behind me )
Would love to see and hear it ride, looks awesome. Kind of an 80's vision of the future. Any more vids of it running?

wow very nice indeed, looks amazing bet it looks even better in the flesh!

They didn't have a clue, the set up was a joke, I had the engine stripped and inspected by someone that knows about blade turbo's and he said the set up and items used were bollox, IE cheap Chinese copy of a Garrett etc, wrong head gasket, carbs well out, the turbo was set at 13psi! enough to blow the head off, M B Customs has a biblical disclaimer on their site that means they can f**k your engine up and there is nothing you can do about it!, live and learn only 5k down the drain.



So new engine

Acid wash



Paint



Finished







And going back in chassis

Certainly does LC, saw it at Brent Cross just after it was finished

At Brent Cross show

Thats the one, taken before it rained and chimpy got her shirt off to dry it off!

that is a proper shame,
are you still gonna go down the turboo route then or just keep it NA?

Bollox to turbos, after a bit of research found no one has managed to turbo a blade that is reliable! got a racefit Zorst for it.

i hope you get to say how shit the company is in all of the magazines the bike goes into.
its alot of money to just loose.

He has 4 court cases running against him at the moment.

He scratched the brand new paint work on the tail section too, when chimpy asked for a reduction in the cost she got told "up yours"

Few build pix

To much porn pal

So heres the none turbo version, motor in and headers on, just need to cut and re align the rear section for the racefit can

So now I'm fitting a normal Zorst the little expansion tank under the swing arm will have to go, here's the new tank I made up



And fitted





And started modifying the new blade system to take a slip on Racefit can

That racefit is going to sound proper crazy and it looks the business. Also is there any benefit from having the separate air filters? cheers wes

I can't fit a standard air box under the tank, the turbo plenium was much smaller so have no choice but to fit cones
