Holy cow - now that is a shed project worthy of Burt Munroe standards.

The amount of time effort and energy put into it is staggering. Making your own billet barrels,four valve head, six speed gearbox, frame, charging system, wheel hubs, brake carriers, turbo manifold plenum chamber. :gob: I´m sure he´s got access to some pretty cool tools but impressive none the less.

No, I don't think so.
Burt's efforts were pretty much No.8 wire and baling twine compared to this!
He's basically built almost the whole bike himself! This is like John Britten's work, except there are bits here like the gearbox, alternator etc. that he's also built rather than just find something else that would do the job. :eek5:

A really OTT effort! :niceone:
