Small bike and small parts.  Not much to it.

We've got a couple of new parts for your custom build arrive in the webshop today. Some Early Barrel grips in Transparent Brown. And some short stemmed clamp on mirrors in black, these are a great alternative to bar end mirrors.  They can be mounted on top or bottom of the bars. Check the webshop for details

We gave ourselves two months to complete the CT110 Postie custom and it's now 2 months since the tear down.  Budget was very strict and we've managed to wrangle it $150 below the target cost and it's almost complete We ended up spending a bit extra and getting the frame and all the bits sandblasted.  Money well spent and saved plenty of time and definitely helped the paint prep.  I wanted to go for an antique type feel for the paint and it's come up looking almost like porcelain. Managed to fire it up last night after realising the ignition coil wasn't earthed properly, which means we'll have it back on the road this weekend.
