Bellicose' s collection of Smoke & Retribution.

[Bellicose]

Thought instead of trying to keep threads updated and starting new ones i'd just put them all in one place then update the thread as i work on one of them.

So in this pic' is,

2 x Suzuki B120s (one currently running) .......SOLD

Suzuki A50

Scrambler Horse mini bike.....SOLD

Phillips Gadabout

In a box to the right of the toolbox is an earlier Phillips Gadabout which is a "long term" project.

 

The Scrambler Horse got pulled apart and new brake shoes and jack shaft bearings were installed along with a nice newly re-built and covered seat courtesy of Greg.

 

Next on the list is the A50. Tried to start it but no spark and carb' leaked like a sieve so found the issue causing the lack of spark lol.

So into bits it had to go....on the table then after a couple of hours the first bits are ready for the sandblasters in the morning.

Tomorrow i'll strip the rims down and get them to the blasters.

This won't be to everyones taste but meh.......

 

[Bellicose]

The collection grows. Bought for the forks.

[Bellicose]

And now this.......pffft.....  SOLD

[Bellicose]

Few things sold and couple acquired.

 

Another late '50s Mobylette.

 

 

AND a Motoconfort MobyX.

 

 

[Bellicose]

And a trailer of.....well if you asked my missus it's called "Rubbish"......

 

[Bellicose]

Thought it was time to update this thread.

 

Everything has been sold (except one very long term moped project in boxes)

 

I'm now concentrating on another Gyro. I did a deal with Raizer on my A50 for it.

This is how i got it.

 

 

And this is how it sits, going to the blasters in the morning.

 

 

Hopefully with only one project i won't get distracted and actually finish it lol.

[Bellicose]

Blasted and painted, better start re-assembly before alzheimers kicks in.

 

[Bellicose]

My OCD kicked in so now I'm cleaning and/or painting EVERYTHING. Second sand blasting pile has started.

 

 

[Bellicose]

Add 70-80mm spacers and you'll get an idea of how wide the arse will be on this thing lol.

Nah man. Waiting on spacers, tyres and me to make up my mind on a colour for the plastics.

[Bellicose]

Little bit of progress. Also tyres ordered.

 

[Bellicose]

More bits to the puzzle.

 

[Bellicose]

Rims correct way or reversed......hmmmm

 

[Bellicose]

Progress is progress.....

Still very interested in how the floor paint goes!
Mines flaking off yet again

Also the Mrs is close to starting on her AU50, so am still keen to have a chat about you waving your gun at the tank etc at some stage.

Have had a bit of a play around with different things and will be going with a rubberized coating with body colour over that for the floorboard.

 

Yeah man no prob'.  

[Bellicose]

Well sh*t, nothing like keeping a thread up to date haha.....................

So finally got some colour on the X and got it together to make sure everything fits. Floorboard isn't the one i'm using but it's what i have at the mo'.

Will ride it around a bit over summer then pull it apart and do all the stuff i should've to start with.
