Let the Fun begin

[Gucci]

Greeting from Sunny South Africa.

Ive just bought a GSX1400 engine (From the UK) and am planning to build my dream bike!! CNC Billet frame, single swing arm holding a 280 wheel - clean, minimal and epic!!!

Hi Gucci, welcome to the forum.  That's an ambitious goal you've set yourself, one I could never hope to achieve. Sounds amazing.    We'll follow your build thread with keen interest for sure.

Hi all

Thanks for such a warm welcome

I recon this build is going to take about 2 years but will be keeping you all posted.

I will start a build thread when I'm back at the office and post pics of the engine and give a rough project overview

The project is called Alchemy

hope it all works to plan mate. alchemy a great name. alchemy are bike people in usa but best alchemy was brook henry in western australia. in 90s he made a bike called that, bevel drive ducati motor in a new bike. he re made every part for motor, still does. my two fave motors, gsx1400 and bevel dukes. one needs a bit of maintenance, one doesnt care. i love both.

Welcome along Gucci

I'll be following your build.
Are you anything to do with Scorch Cycles in Cape Town? They build some very tidy bikes.
