    As someone who does very novice bike customizations in LA. You guys are really making me want to do a BMW build. I appreciate the inspiration. Gutted I couldnt make your captains table dinner at the Bike Shed. The hats you guys had made are legendary among us Shed members 😂

      That was a good one. Sore heads all round the next day at Icons of Design. I’m pretty sure Simon stole a few hats. Ask him for one

    Extremely nicely done. Clever, elegant and sympathetically enhanced.

    What a beautiful piece of work, engineering, style, and hard hard labor.
    Congratulations!

      Absolutely, it's the result of 20 years of R&D on the same block. Add to that, we took the crank out and balanced it with the new long con-rods and short skirt pistons, the result is magical.

    Wonderful project. I have been working on my 75/5 for 4 years now but getting close to the end :) Could you please share what kind of paint you use for engines? The matt black looks owesome on the 75 and I am curious what kind of paint it is.

    Hello. What brand brackets did you use to hold your Marschal Fog lights to your engine crash bars?

    • @RoughchildMoto
      @RoughchildMoto  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Made them by welding tabs on to the engine guards
