MORIWAKI RACE BIKE

#46 PostAuthor: Mick Hayward » Thu Jan 08, 2009 12:08 pm

Hi Grahamm

Super looking bike, is the seat standard as it looks a lot lower that usual. I need to get my feet nearer the ground.

Thanks

Mick

Are the casings from a Z900/1000 with Z1000J/R head fitted? What's swinging arm from? Looks pretty solid.
Nice bike Graham.

Graham, as soon as you have a list of meetings that you will be doing, post them on here. I am sure a few of us will come along and give support.
The club helped Glenn Williams out a few years ago when he was running in Earlystocks.

Wow that bike looks Superb Graham...bloody well done !

I have just found this thread.

I hope you were not the guy who wanted some Moriwaki stickers from me

for the tank ? :oops:

ps. "have you seen steve elliott moriwaki taken 20 years to do."

Sorry lads but I find that very insulting...I built my bike in 1985 and have

messed around and modified it ever since...


it did not "take 20 years to do" Compo....it is 23 and still counting ! :gom

Mick
