Have a good look at this. Local artist does a lot
of this stuff. You can have a pic of you or your bike/woman/cat etc. Just supply
a good photo and I will do the rest. Prices start from £75 for a unframed pencil
drawing. Nice present for someone too!!
Les's bike now finished. Looks sooo good,eh? More pics when the weather improves and I can take some more pics outside!!
A very nice Fatboy. This is one I bought in a real state. It now has a new 113" S&S engine and a 6 speed tranny. V&H exhaust, S&S IST ignition, 150 section rear tyre, polished wheels, Ness grips, mirrors and no. plate holder, oh just look and dribble.... and sold it too... for £11K bargain eh?
and here's the happy owner..... Bob from the Isle
of Wight!
Here is how you do an led job on a front
fender,eh?
OK. A few pics of Tommy's Trike. Now, many of you will have seen this wonderful thing before, but for those who haven't - have a good look while I give you a few details. Note the err semi slick/ legal tyres and the smoothie rear rims.... the led lamps in the mudguards, that nice logo on the side panel made by me! Oh the electric cover engraved just for him.... the rear axle made here etc etc. Just enjoy..... Update for this year! Now wearing a Mikuni HSR42 (as are all the sensible people), more go, better starting, etc etc
Paul's Buell S2. Very rare machine - only half a dozen in the country. These were the first bikes built under the Buell/Harley partnership. Just re done the paintwork. Now for some extra power!!
Ah, the Truck. Well it is
a lot better these days. New engine fitted last year, followed by a gearbox
rebuild, twice.... new seats, tonneau (or tonno as the Yanks would have it!!),
tyres etc.. Still love it tho' and boy, does it go with that new engine. I now
have a truck camper to go on it - great for weekends away..
Now, I'd like to tell you a story.... Denis Newman is a retired fireman. He wanted to buy a Harley Roadking special firefighters edition. They wouldn't sell him one. Bollocks he said. I said, go and buy a RoadKing and leave the rest to us. Here's the result. Nothing too special you might think. Look at the pipc of the tank.... that is not a sticker... that is painted on, yes, you'd better believe it!! Some bit of painting,eh? As I said nothing is too difficult here at MMC. Denis is pleased. To put it mildly!!
That old geezer grinning inanely is Pete Pettigrew. He's a sad old thing, but one of my longest suffering customers, so I'd better be nice to him. Oh, too late.... Anyway, remember the Scotster? Did that about 9/10 years ago. Well here it is reincarnated. New front end (pity we can't do the same for you eh, Pete?) an SJP wideglide kit with some later forks. New oil tank, new starter, and a coat of paint - this is what he really wanted last time but I wouldn't let him!! Anyway, look at the quality of the painting, the nice details and the silly grin..... When you next see him, go up to him and say, 'hey aren't you the sad old git from Eastbourne?' He likes that.... err... perhaps...
Now here's a little story..... I had an email, well several in fact from a guy in the States who reckoned that Pete Pettigrew was his second cousin. No way said Pete. So the emails continued.... This guy knew a Pete Pettigrew who went to University in the States and went on to join the Navy to fly aircraft, Top Gun type of thing. Hmm.. not like our Pete.. anyway he went on to become something of a hero, and in the Top Gun film the part played by Tom Cruise was loosely based on Pete Pettigrew, the other one - not the sad old git from Eastbourne. Come to mention it, I don't s'pose there have been too many Top Gun types coming from Eastbourne have there? Top Zimmer perhaps, Lager Top even, Top Auto Solvol..... Anyway, in the film there is a scene where Pete Petigrew (the Yank) appears as "old man in bar" ahhh! That's a more accurate portrayal of our Pete!!!! Oh how we laffed!!!
Here are a few pics of Les's shovel. Started out as a new pair of wheels..... now a complete rebuild / custom job. Wheels are all stainless, repainted frame, new metalwork with that lovely paintjob, buddy seat, nice motor mount, decent front brake, led rear lamp, hidden fastener fender struts, etc.. more will follow... promise!
As promised, some final pics of the finished job!!
Kev's bike. A very shiny Heritage. New suspension from Progressive, new tyres and service, lots of Kuryakyn bits... just look and imagine all that polishing!!!!
