I know a guy who restores neglected motorbike relics.
This isn’t a hobby, it’s what he does for a living.
Today’s Snapshot Saturday is a look at his most recent project.
Unfortunately I don’t have the ‘before’ photos, but the ‘after’ shots are well worth looking at


Looks like it’s come straight from the factory, doesn’t it?
That IS nice!
I reckon that some of these bikes that are restored by enthusiasts, are actually in better nick than when they came out of the showroom.
He’s done some stunning work. Everything leaves his workshop in that condition. He did a Honda 750/four last, which looked absolutely stunning when he rolled it out.
I love the old 750/four. If I had the money/room/time to own two bikes, that’s what could end up sharing the garage with the Trumpet.
That or a Suzuki GT750.
