Yet another OT request. Is there a good message board for Brit bikes, I got abunch of questions about my 441 Victor that I want to restore.

Here you go.....Shiny

you could ask around the horse...

 

Britbikes is a good board for info and I'm not trying to knock them but if you are looking for HAMB-like qualities, I haven't really found them. They are informational to each other but not 'go out of your way' helpful like most HAMBers. And forget getting good deals on parts, most seem to be out for all they can get over there.

A stock restorer over there once bought an old Thunderbolt chopper and asked me if I wanted the non stock parts (a rusty girder front end, a spool wheel, some rusty pegs, and a ripped K&q seat) because they were trash to him. I offered him $250 for the lot and he acted like I had come by his house and shot his dog. He was more under the impression that his 'trash' as he called it was worth closer to $1k.

People seem fairly cool on ChopperUnderground too but the board's search function is not too hot.

 

I havent found anything as cool as the Hamb for brit bikes.....some of the nicest bikes show up here first....I do check The Horse oc***ionally.....all types of bikes seem welcome if they don't look like fidos ***.

 

Cool thanks, I'm more in need of just info right now. I don't like the Horse 'cause there's lots of dumb ***es that think they know whats up but as soon as you ask or say something specific they trip out.

I would not own a brit bike PERIOD!!!!!!............................. Buy American
That way there are more Brit bikes for me and hatch to buy.
Heck Hatch has the only museum showcasing Brit bikes in Mi. LOL
I have done alot of surfin and I think Hatch is correct in what he says.
Fellow HAMBer JohnnyGringo has a small sight with a mesg board and most of the guys there are brit owners alot of good info on tech too.

My brit bikes are actually Vespa motorscooters painted to look like brit stuff....

 

My first ride in the wind came in 1966 on a vespa motorscooter.My father worked for a vespa dealer while in college and would ride me around on them.

Here is a spy photo with out the disguise on of hatchs bikes

Check out this scoot Hatch this would be cool.

Outstanding Ryan! That looks like it's gonna be great. Though I would expect nothing less from the likes of you.

Thanks in advance for the extra work.

But yeah Tim, you're right, it's just one more window that I'll have to keep open all day at work.

Thanks Ryan!

 

Jeayzuzz Ryan!

You are a glutton for punishment...

I'da thought one was enough to teach you a lesson.

Just think how many times someone is gonna ask you what a "Traditional Chopper or Bobber" is or what's the difference.

 

i plan to quickly write the rules for what is traditional.


anyone know what kind of neon's the used back then

 

Oh ****, a whole different place! WOW. Will we have to register or will or HAMB names transfer over? This will be reeeeaaaaall nice for those of us that perfer this brand of indecency versus 4wheeled vehicles.

****. there goes the 20% productivity i am at at work as it is with the HAMB.

whats the acronym going to be for the JockeyJournal?

 

I can't wait! Thanks Ryan - thats a might big undertaking on your part.
Just like Rat Fink had a brother on a bike - so now will the Jalopy Journal...
So will there be a J.A.M.B. message board???
