Basket Case

There's an engine in a basket and a frame at the painters... Another stroker, coming to life soon.

Cafe Racer Food For Thought

This is not just any other custom. This is not just another garage-built cafe race. This is actually a production ready motorcycle by chinese firm Skyteam.

With a 125cc power-plant and dimensions slightly smaller than the current 135cc machines in the market, this makes for one compact motorcycle. 

It's retro-looking, it's stylish and some manufacturer in India ought to take a cue and bring about a revolution. Somebody? Anybody?

Build em... Ride em...Build em again

First built as a track bike, this motorcycle has slowly been put
together over the years and will now assume a more street
legal form. Some say barely...I beg to differ

 

Money is dwindling, but braided hoses are in order

I wasn't keen on the rear disc but they say it's 'unconventional' to

have an alloy and a spoke wheel on the same motorcycle. Maybe they

need to get out a little!! Or maybe i need to stick to my ways to

save myself the trouble

 

A 14mm Nissin master cylinder will put the brakes on the front.

Thank God the spares from Japan are finally getting used.

Timed, tuned and tweaked, this motor should be a whole lotta fun

Stay tuned to see how the build turns out, or if you're in the area,

swing by to see it, touch it or hear it. BRRRRAAAAAAAPPPPP

BRAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPP BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPP

thanks to Pablo for the great lenses, without which the pics would absolutely suck

Kustom Kits

This idea of building something different here in India has been in the back of my mind and here's what I finally came up with. If you're interested in something like this, kits like these are on sale for all Royal Enfield models and can be customised to your liking. And if you must know, you drop 45kgs on the whole. Quciker smiles for every passing mile. Mail me for more info.

Spotless is for the wimps... Get down and dirty!

Happy New Year to y'all. Hope you get some dust in your eye and bugs in your teeth this year.
And remember the bugs at dusk are the tastiest!
