BBR Build pics

Why not ay. Bit long winded though but bare with me.

How the bike started off, the engine had done about 15 mins use in this pic and had done about 2 hours before meeting its demise



Rear brake was seized and pads were knackered, so got our friendly neighbourhood skippy to sort that out for me and the brake was spot on pic just shows the way the pads wore which i found peculiar.



I wasn't happy with how the forks felt so stripped them and changed the oil, seems i deleted the pics but i was surprised how basic inside these forks were considering how much they cost new, i'm told they are the same as SP's


All was set for the first ride, got there unloaded got out and pounded round, within the first hour i'd destroyed 1st and 4th gear and cracked the engine case. Pissed off at the thing I wanted to give it a good send off haha went out and didn't leave 3rd once and just kept going until it wouldn't go no more.

Head seemed fine


Barrell was spot on Does anyone know why it has the red rust like stuff in there?





Couldn't go any further because i rounded the screw which goes into the bottom end off

I'm going to make this bike quiet as a mouse so i went and bought a stock pipe and fitted my pro carbon heat sheild



FAO jellybaby you asked in my other thread how to tell its a bbr.

Can you tell what it is yet?
