my dustbin racer

Post by bootlegger »

I found this bike in a shed a few years ago and over the last few months decided to get it running.
Last Friday for the first time in over fifty years The Samson Royal Enfield Special hit the track..sadly it only ran well for a lap and a half.
I hand made in alloy the fairing and tail.
Im pretty proud of it.

You should be proud of your work too, looks great. Just goes to show you should check your shed more often to see what has been lost in the passage of time!
