The latest Patina restoration


received_3211823855802849.jpg


A little something to play with as I can no longer ride proper motorcycles
 
As the cycle if a mechanical restored bike but kept its Patina
I intend to do the same with the Trojan minimotor
It should be an interesting build
The most difficult bit will be dvla registration (as per usual)
The bike is a gents 24"
You need to be over 6'00"to ride it !
I'll post updates as the build progresses
 
Getting there

I like it.... (y)

Is the engine a runner and could it now be ridden ???

Approx' ten years ago, my mate had one of these. The bike bit was ancient. He reckoned that riding it was more frightening than riding a Fireblade, in the wet, on bald tyres.....:D

Nearly , a bit of final fettling and it's going on FB marketplace.
It's been a bit of therapy
I've ridden them in the past Inc other roller types. Scary as f**k but fun
Then onto looking for another wacky project
 
Nearly sorted
We have sparks, we have fuel
Just trying to sort the timing. ( woodruff key was mixing!)
I've put the older petrol tank on, the nicer condition one has a petrol tap fault ! ( sheered flange )
