The NC35 is also nearing the finish line, finishing her up soon..

A very underrated color scheme this black and white, not sure why it's not more popular as it's quite stunning!

One of my favorites and that says alot as I usually prefer bright colours on my sportbikes

The little 1963 Ducati mountaineer 100cc is making progress. I got the bike running before stripping it down.

I am expecting all the newly chromed pieces back any day now then we will begin to re-assemble.

Fit a new set of tyres (this is an offroad bike) to the newly chromed and rebuilt wheels. A difficult to find 16inch sizing meant importing a set of tyres from the UK at an eye watering cost.

I chose to paint it in Ducati Pantah blue with a dash of gold and silver accents.

Should be a beautiful sight when it starts to come together again.

Thanks for watching 👀

I bet you never seen one of these!

This 1967 Aeromacchi 350cc racebike has come in for a revival. Hasn't run in many years.

The engine had seized up from standing, managed to get it turning again after soaking the bore for a couple days.

Have fit a new set of tyres, stripped down the carb to repair a snapped main jet. We will be adjusting the valves and getting it ready for the racetrack again.

It's a privilege to work on such rare and special machines.

Aermacchi was an Italian company, who started in the aircraft industry, they made bikes too. Harley Davidson acquired 50% stake in the company and that partnership resulted in the birth of this machine.

This is essentially a "works" production Harley sprint. They only ever made 110 of them, it's suspected that less than 10 are still left in existence, this is one of them.

This is a Harley Davidson, Aeromacchi. Half Italian half American.

A pair of Puchs ❤️

Joined the que for restoration...

While often confused with a German brand, due to its Germanic name and popularity in Germany, Puch is actually an Austrian brand.

It was part of the Steyr-Daimler-Puch conglomerate :)

In South Africa we call these a "help my trap" translated to "help me pedal"
