    Very interesting, thanks for sharing.
    Now I’m quite happy to do a bit of spannering, but I know my limitations and wheel building is not in my skill set!
    Love the stuff Allen Millyard does, the bloke is a genius

    Which top yoke did you use, Koko? I assume the CRK conversion is Trident based, so was the top yoke changed to allow clip-ons when it was first converted? Did you have the conversion done or did you buy it already converted?

    Just watched this together with handsome husband. I will definitely never lace any wheels but enjoyed watching this. HH was recalling lacing the wheels on his Norton (sorry, "N" bike) 32 years ago and wondering if he'd done it all like Allen said...my response: "Uh, honey, I think it must have been fine. And I would have trouble remembering what I did just two years ago!" Anyway, thanks for posting.:cool:

    Out for a ride today.Tomorrow’s the annual service for the 765. Can’t believe a year of ownership has passed. Time sure accelerates as one gets older!

    Gave the Thruxton a Winter spruce up and took her out for a good run in the Countyside, first time out for a few weeks and she didn’t miss a beat - sheer bliss, until I hit a flooded piece of road and both me and the bike got soaked
    So another wash down when back home

    This bike never fails to make me smile

    Took the Scrambler out to scrub in the new tyres. Very cold damp salty roads so nice and steady, didn't fancy trying out the new engine bars! Heated gloves on max, lovely :)

    Rode a little on the highway, then back streets, and then to the coffee shop Sacred Grounds for coffee and pie. Not a bad Sunday!
