Hello from bloody freezing UK was created by juggler

Right I've lurked long enoughFinally got my SC500 back from USA to far east of UK.When I bought it (Jan 2022) I thought you only needed a bill of sale on an off road bike to export it to UK, but now of course you need a title at all west coast ports and for that I needed to be standing next to it in Phoenix AZ, which I didn't manage until Spring 2023. Bike arrived mid Summer, but has been languishing unloved while I've been at other projects. So many projects.Plan is to take it flat track racing, the vintage side of which is really taking off over here. Not going to cut it about, just a 19" front wheel and XS650 yokes and  electronic ignition/heavier flywheel and develop from there. I'll put all other projects aside ('71 H1A, '31 Model A Coupe and '30 Roadster, '43 GPW) and dig into it when the weather gets better. If the weather gets better.Thanks for having meCheersJuggs

Truck is a 1930. One me and my Dad built from parts bought from our mate Sammy at Arizona Model A and found on the local Craigslist. My Dad built another one, a '31 Budd Cab, which is now back in UK along with a '30 AA recently arrived. 

I've got a '29 Pickup and a '31 Coupe I've raced at Pendine with the VHRA here in UK. Coupe has a Riley ohv conversion. I've got a 30 Roadster and a 27 T Roadster to be getting on with but no time and not enough money right now.

Another hobby that's got way out of hand....

That’s awesome a Riley 2 port crazy the speed stuff they came out with in the early 30’s. I love hearing a model a, v8 , and a Yamaha 2 stroke Sound music to my ears.

Hi Jim - no that was a TZ750 engined flat tracker I found on Phoenix Craigslist a while back for close on $50k. I kept the link and the pics in case I ever win the lottery. So far no good :(
