Hi,
I have had a few nova projects in the past on here, but i now have a non nova project that i thought i might share with you guys. In early august i got knocked off of my motorbike and as i was TPFT my insurance did not fight for my case which is weired. Anyway Bikers Legal Defence itervened and they are chasing pament for my bike damages as it is deemed a write off and believe the accident to be the third parties fault. As i have the bike back now, im going to convert to track only because i cannot be bothered with road riding anymore way too many car drivers on the road to knock me off.
I only have the crashed pics of her at the moment but will upload more when i start working on her to turn here into a track bike.
I hope you like! And she will be trailed by my Nova daily drive.
Thanks For looking.

Yeah was about 30-40. I know it's just the thing you can't see that cost the money. I need a new Top rad as it is bent up, something wrong with the brakes and the chain and sprockets needed doing anyway.

And I can say that some 'bikers' are utter bellends.... from real direct experience of being hit by one then him trying to blag its my fault lol
I crashed my 125 when i was 17.
I was going across a roundabout when he just pulled out in front of me.
All i can remember is "oh sh1t red nissan bluebird bonnet sky floor sky floor sky kirb ouch"
On a good note i had just come pass a ambulance driver on his way home and the car behind the nissan was a police car..
It has made me look out more for bikes since then and as stu said there are some bellends on bikes aswel.

Totally agree.
My worst biker experience was with a bike courier they are the worst. don't care about anyone but theirself.
But I do experience at least two knobheads a day on my comute to work in cars.

There is nothing you can do but brace yourself theres nowhere to go. And yeah i know what you mean sky floor sky floor. You can't see anything.

I like her she is my dream bike. So at least i have one dream vehicle ticked off. The power is very nice. Very progressive, and doesn't fade off just a constant pull even in the 10,000 11,000 revs! I love the sound too! those pictures are before the thorough clean and polish too! I have polished the scratched panels for about an hour and most of the litle scratches have come out which is good!
