I thought I would see if there are some proper keen eyed people here, I used this pic to show some one something in the workshop then I thought I would post it in here and see if people could tell me what two bikes were used to make this one?

Its a picture of a picture but you can make it out well enough.

It was built using bits we had and a budget of a tenner.

Happy guessing.

Hi

Engine / tank / frame are old GS ones (550 / 750 / 1000). Wheels look like old air cooled GPz (550 / 750 / 1100).

At a guess.

All the best

Keith

Top guessage Kick start.


Its a GS 500, chopped up a bit, with GPZ 750 wheels chain and sprocket, I'm not sure about the headlight but I was told its off a BSA bantum.

Not bad on a tenner is it?


Fun time building it in the sun with a few cans anyway.
