(Black rims)
Yup, black rims, cool eh Graeme?
I must plead guilty to the black rim bigots. I did them back in 1993/4 and I think I was the first go black on a pre 75 bike to my knowledge. It was way cool back then but has had it's day in 2010.
Don't worry though, because I've had a tap on the shoulder from the pit Nazis telling me my hubs are 'verboeten' so it's going back to the original shiny Akronts and full width front hub if I decide to bring the old puppy back onto the track.

Ijn reflection though, the black rims aren't as bad as the earlier purple rim or fluro phases I went through. Everyone hated them. which achieved the desired effect. ;)
Sigh!It's so hard being a fashion icon. 8)

Santa, blender, 350 squarie and '73 250

Fluro orange '73 250 and fluro pink '73 440. Tastful and understated circa '92

BTW do you still have the blender  ;D

I remember circa 92, simpler times, fluro was in and the 'nac nac' was the most dangerous thing you could do on a motorcycle.

I don't know what you mean with the above Freaky. No idea ???

To answer your question though, I don't want to sell them and the anodizing is cactus on the rear one anyway after using caustic on it (don't ask, I flucked up).

I was given this article quite a few years back, the guy wanted a B & S replica arm to build the same project.
It will probably be hard to read on here, so right click on every picture & click "save as"
once saved on your hard drive you will be able to zoom in to ba eable to read sections.
