The TriBsa build has stalled due to sickness and some technical issues but hopefully we will be  back on track next week , it also seems that the engine is a little more trick that i had thought , so i need to strip it to check the cranksahft before we go any further .

BSA Racer 

Len at the cylinder head shop has finished lightening and setting up the rockers to match the HC squish head he has flowed and worked his magic on , so it should be running at Christmas Yeh

HayRide

If anyone apart from me reads this Here is my tale of woe - thinking i should just be called "Lucky"
I got to the Hayride , not only without my bike as i only got it to run right on the Friday and didnt fancy a 2 up shakedown of 150 miles , so i arranged to borrow my brothers 54 Chevy truck which got me less than a mile down the road ! and my car seized an A/C pump and shredded the belt so finally got there lunchtime Saturday in a loaned Passat !
So just walked and chilled said Hi to a few and got ready to camp when i got a call from a guy in Germany wanting to come early Sunday morning to buy my spare Ironhead motor so had to leave Sat early Eve
On the flip side my 1970 Sportster is running perfectly now :-)

How Long !

Well i am back after some time
Recent events , i tried to go to the Tea Pary on the iron head , but it was running like a bag of shite
So with other problems went in the car and  icould only stay a few hours so didnt get to meet many
Got home threw the CV carb in the bin and used a 36mm Mikuni with  insulation tape wrapped around to fit the manifold and its run perfectly ish since
90 mph and it held together so all good !

Thanks to Chas for the Extended swing arm and short shocks for the Supercharged Tribsa  project , another step nearer , i will start the build after this weekend .

Thanks Rob for digging the photo out for me 

Now some pwople are never satisfied with one or even two engines???

Nuff said !

GEORGE Laycock -Norton Commando a blown methanol burning low 10 second runner.

The standard frame was sawn in half and the top tube extended to kick the front end out, whilst the swinging arm was replaced by a rigid and much stronger arrangement.

A Marshall cabin blower is neatly fitted above the gearbox which is a Bewley 3 speed unit. Clutch is modified Commando and for 2001 ignition is courtesy of a Joe Hunt type magneto grafted onto the timing cover. Compression ratio is reduced by use of a plate under the cylinder barrel.

950cc Triumph based Nourish with reversed head, Roots type blower, and Hilborn injection running on nitro. Transmission is by slider clutch and 2 speed Bewley gearbox.

you gotta love this !!
