Some time in the late '80's I started collecting bits for a 45. I started with the motor, tranny & frame from Tony Bairstow in London.
Wind forward 20 years and I sold the now mostly complete box of bits to my brother Milo in Wiltshire.... 3 miles from where Tony now lives.
With Tonys experience and Milo's persistence the bike is now done and doing it up the track today. The motor sounds great and the bike flies for 45, it handles as good as it looks- nimble and nippy, I am glad I sold it to him but fuck I want it back. Well done Milo, great start to 2012. Check out his blog '45chop' in the sidebar.
Nice work Milo ...
