Love it all.
Have you got any updated photos of the bikes? The last ones you posted were the Bros in 2013 ...

Nah haven't changed anything much since then. Not planning on it either, work on viffer and second bros instead.

Got swingarm back from the anodisers, didn't come up all that flash cos mr honda buried some paint or something in the casting. I knew the frame had ali silver paint on it but didn't think they did the swingarm. So there is (very very few) white bits where the anodising hasn't go to at all due to paint bubbling up during the process, and a few more darker spots where it has anodised, but has done so deeply due to pores opening up in the dirty casting during the process.
I'm sort of on the fence about it, it'll hide dirt/wear/road grime way better than a polished finish, and it will never look as good compared to an absolute showroom shine on just the polished version. The color itself, while a smidge darker than I was expecting, is still quite nice.

Was it baked, then acid dipped before ano? Pays to sweat all the gay out of the casting before hand
Could have come out worse though

There is some serious skills going on here, I am blown away.
The stuff you have made in aluminium for starters is simply amazing, my next project needs a stepped triple clamp. Would you be keen to have a look?
I'm think that there could be a market for a few more also. Anyway just a thought.
I wish I had your skills they are impressive.
Your bike looks very cool.

Cheers man, unfortunately I don't have the CNC access I used to so can't take on such projects atm.
