I showed a customer of mine the photo's of your build to a customer that wanted a cool bike built out of his wrecker 1050 Triumph and he went banana's . Imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery so if he can do a deal with his insurer to get the wreck of his bike back I'll be copying that Spondon frame of yours in 32mm CDS2 for his Triumph . Very tasty build you have going indeed .
I'll be more than interested to see the outcome as well Chop. Bring it on mate.
fuck yeah i have been thinking the same thing chop it doesnt seem that hard to work out i dont reckon

They've done all the hard work in design. Just gotta build a jig around it now.

if you're gonna hijack my thread at least post some pics!
ahhh seen it....v nice mate
It's something I [u]really</u> want to do . As the customer has a super tight budget I agreed to build the frame for Cost + 10% to test the waters with it. If all goes to plan will start sometime in February . It boils down to whether the insurer clearing the claim and allowing him to buy it back . But they have set a date in January for it to be settled by so I'm hopeful. Only ever built one like that before and it was primitive compared to work I've done lately so I'd like to test my skills by making one like this . Even with the photo's to go off it is by no means an easy task or a simple one. Most pieces have a bend and some have several making it a 3D jigsaw . With some fundamental differences in the running gear I think it should turn out OK . Have to make some additions to my existing frame jig but I enjoy a challenge . Time wise it should be the more hours building then any other frame I've done so far. I just hope the owner can cut a deal with the Insurer so I can get it done.
Sorry to hijack the thread RB .
time to get your own thread....
news just in......
picking up a turbo tomorrow
Spondon Turbo Blade...how cool does THAT sound!
