So....

Back in the day I was a big fan of Tinker, loved the bikes, couldnt afford them yadda yadda. So to stop me buying another motorbike Ive bought a couple of late 90's F series to build into Tinker Tributes. A red one (The F900) and a Blue one (The F1000)
Wont be exact reps of course but it'll be fairly close hopefully, so I'll be hunting out lots of OG coda stuff and lates 90's XTR bits. I might even use them!
New decals ordered from Indiprint and a mate is on standby with the paint! Hopefully they'll progress pretty quickly.
The wheels on the F1000 are 700c Ambrosio rims but on minty mint Hope Hubs, undecided if im going to take them apart or not yet

Lot of work needed on the top one. Respray on the cards?

Should be good

Yep, soda blasting next week or so to get any nasty off and then etch prime and paint

Thought I’d update this one, The Tinker build (disc frame) is on hold until my mate who does the blasting decides to come home from swanning about he NC500!
The F900 is still going red albeit in a slightly different direction……
