Rolling chassis


Fitted fork, wheels and gearbox. New/old 19" rims, cleaned the brakes, fresh grease in the bearings. Had to make some spacers to align everything.



Yes, I know, the rear hub is from a 1930's Indian and the front wheel is probably from a 1950's model Norton.



I'll immediately fit the original wheels when I can get them but untill then this will have to do. I wouldn't be surprised however if these hubs have been there for over half a century so another few years won't harm. And they sure look right.
