Not long come across your channel, currently living/working overseas(from the UK) came to you via Bonneville search and now hooked watching the rest of your Vids. Trying to find one here(middle east) is like the proverbial rocking horse poo😂 Have to tip my hat to you fella, jumping in and giving things a go even if not your strength. Some paintwork tips: Guide coat before flatting your primer, the ring was caused by the solvents in the basecoat reacting to a layer of the paint that was incompatible(always seal with a high build primer). Gloss black would be better than silver, as it shows the defects better. Keep up the great work. P.S. Much prefer the new tail end, I couldn't see how the "toblerone" fitted in with the lines of the bike.

@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Thank you Allen, the new format is nothing sinister, just briefly put, we used to make 3 videos a week, usually 2 on the build and then something alternative on the Sunday, but the editing time for that was extremely heavy going , we've now changed to 2 videos a week, sometimes it'll be focused on the project, other times, alternative stuff, but we plan to put the same progress, and content, in to the few videos, so sometimes the videos might be physically longer, others time they'll be shorter in play time, but contain lots of progress, in short basically we're gonna get more done in less videos to cut down in editing time which as been keeping us out of the garage !

Just a heads up Del. The MOT regs have changed and you can no longer have integrated indercators and brake light. Have a word with your MOT guy and just make sure. I have followed this build and I really want to see it on the road this year. So you may have to make a temp bracket to hold indercators and then revert back to the integrated. Best of luck and a amazing job. P.s. liking the new format. Would love more but we have lives and jobs so it's understandable. Amazing work as always 😁

Oh my goodness! What a masterpiece you’ve created there Del. I know we’re buddies but please believe me when I tell you that the bike looks absolutely incredible. You and Pen should be very proud of yourselves. These series of videos on fabrication will go down in KZbin history and live forever as a solid guide of “how to”....... You’ve been very patient, modest and dignified during the entire process and the glorious results reflect that. Massive kudos to you sir!

Good evening Dai, Thank you so much for your humbling words of praise, its just one bloke faffing about and having fun in the garage.. what results id more luck that judgement.. Much of what i do, most people know how to do.. but if we can reach out and help a few of the new riders, then thats great... Have a wonderful weekend my friend, this must best be some of the best riding weather in years, so we hope you are getting out and spanking that V4 for all its worth... Love to you and the family, take care and keep in touch.. Del & Pennyx

You're getting there and an un-cluttered rear end looks so much better than the usual bike rear but what are you going to do about indicators and a reg plate/light/reflector, basically all the crap required for an mot and 'police stop' free biking? Ps admire your patience when it comes to sanding down
@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Thank you Andrew, keeping the indicators under wraps, got something cunning planned and it's not going in the tail, or on the swing arm! Will slip a plate between the undertray and the tail in that top line, I can use LED number plate screws and a stick on reflector to keep the bronze at bay! Thanks for your kind support buddy ...

Hey off topic, I've just put new clip ons oh my rsvr I was hoping to pick your brain on how you ended up securing pr deleting the reservoir. PS I found your channel couple of months ago I live in New Zealand now but I used to live in Corfe Mullen and I enjoy watching your right out videos around my old stomping ground especially that one up merely Lane😉
@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Hi buddy, the only time I've seen people delete reservoir, is either to use the old GP trick of a 3" clear tube in place of the reservoir with a plug in the end of it, or alternatively, switching over to a cast type where it's all in one solid, moulded, alloy block... hope that helps in some way buddy.... and what a small world, glad you enjoy enjoyed seeing your old home!!

Hi Dell, what do you have in mind regards a seal betwixt the undertray meets tail piece Super video caught a pink Floyd reference
@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Hi Warren.. im going to rethink that undertray, its going to be impossible to use that steel item without it ending up weighing too much... i have a few other plans, but with so many little jobs to knock off still, ill come back to it when i have a firm plan.. chain guard this weekend.. making it from scrap, and wanted to challenge myself to see if i could take it from scrap materials to a painted and finished (fitted) item in 6 hours.. did 3 hours last night after work, and doing three more this morning... then ill edit and upload the footage hopefully in time for this evening.. wish me luck..!!

Where the heck do you store all the 'mightcumminandee' stuff, Del? You always seem to have just what's needed right when you need it. That's a neat trick. Excellent viewing as always, and I must say that your temporary undertray looks OK to me (as long as it doesn't rattle....). Safe roads 👍
@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Hi Keith... i guess im a bit of a hoarder at heart.. i can see a useful item in scrap at a hundred paces..lol.. The undertray has a lot of work still to do.. its only temporary, and i will make sure its nice and tight as being steel against fiberglass, i dont want i causing fractures.. wanted ot do more, but just ran out of time.. thanks for your kind feedback matey.. have a good weekend.. Del.

The still shot from the rear before the vid starts looks great. Is the tail a little high on the right or is the light/shadow? Great vlogs as usual, cheers
@Moonfleet416 жыл бұрын
Light/shadow possibly, but it's not bolted down level, it was only 'thrown' on there, the whole panel sits on 4 rubber bungs, half a turn off the left, and half a turn on the right, and that would tilt it level ... not of it's permanently fitted, as it all has to come off this week for more work, hoping to start it up in the next video!
