Description

AN UNUSUAL  OPPORTUNITY!!!! TO ACQUIRE A GENUINE ONE OFF MACHINE.   I AM MOVING WORKSHOP AND HAVE SEVERAL FUTURE PROJECT BUILDS UNDER WAY. SO I'M OFFERING THE YELLOW PERIL FOR SALE. PICTURES REALLY DON'T DO THIS BIKE JUSTICE. I BUILT THE YELLOW PERIL USING A CB 750 FRAME AS A BASIS. CAREFULLY MODIFIED OBVIOUSLY THE YAMAHA CHAIN DRIVEN 750 V TWIN ENGINE NOW FORMS PART OF THE FRAME (as it did in the ORIGINAL Yamaha frame). REAR SUSPENSION IS BY WAY OF A VFR SINGLE SIDED MONO SHOCK ARM. HOUSING A TRIUMPH HUB AND CALLIPER WITH A CENTRE NUT THREE SPOKE WHEEL. FRONT IS STANDARD SUZUKI GSXR . TANK IS HONDA. SEAT IS DUCATI. THE REST OF THE BIKE IS TOTALLY BESPOKE. HAND MADE S/STEEL WRAPPED EXHAUST SYSTEM EXITING UNDER THE SEAT. NEW WIRING LOOM AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. S/STEEL HEADLAMP MOUNTS. THE LIST GO'S ON. THE BIKE IS SO MUCH LIGHTER. BRAKING IS (MODERN) CREATING A UNIQUE AND AGILE MACHINE WITH THE RIGHT SOUND. HOWEVER ALTHOUGH THE BIKE IS ALL UP AND RUNNING WELL. THE ACHILLES HEEL OF THIS ENGINE HAS REARED IT HEAD.  THE STARTER MOTOR BENDIX SYSTEM SOMETIMES ENGAGES AND SOMETIMES NOT INDICATING A WORN  ROTOR STARTER RING AND BENDIX. THERE FOR I'M OFFERING THE PERIL AS A PROJECT. FOR A SENSIBLE PRICE. WELL UNDER IT'S BUILD COST AND VALUE. SO PLEASE NO SILLY OFFERS. I COULD BE TEMPTED BY A PART EX TOO. GIVE ME A RING 07845916732 IF YOU WANT ANY MORE INFO AND OF COURSE YOUR WELCOME TO COME AND HAVE A LOOK. I'LL BE POSTING SOME MORE PHOTOS IN A FEW DAYS I'M JUST INCREDIBLY BUSY AT THE MOMENT.
