Who The Fuck Is Spindle

I'm a fat kid from Salford, been in to bikes since I could shit in a nappy. Crashed a few along the way, but i'm still here pissing everyone off. I've tried my hand at motocross and drag racing over the years. I won fuck all, but had a proper laugh, and enjoyed every minute of the time I spent with fellow racers. I have now turned my very limited engineering skills to custom bike building. I have always loved the bike shows and the creations the famous builders dreamed up. I regularly attend all the big events throughout the UK. I have taken inspiration from many builders, but more so from my very good friend Mister D.T.F.P. Benny "Boneshaker" Thomas. Benny has guided my hand through all the builds in these pages, and he has kept me safe, ensuring what creations i come up with are ride-able, safe, (all most) legal, and don't kill me. During my time in Benny's workshop I have met some cool people and made some great friends. I don't take life too seriously. The following pages are just rambling's and experience's of mine during the builds. This blog in not intended to be accurate or period perfect, its just for a laugh, and describes the things I like and love. Please feel free to hurl abuse and insults.

ROCKSOLID MOTORCYCLES



I bought a frame off my friend Sergio, he lives in Portugal.  He Emailed me a few days ago to tell me it was all ready, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it.  A few days later i got a phone call from Sergio telling me he was an hour from my house and would I be in. Sergio had personally delivered the frame from his workshop to my house, that’s a round trip of 2100 miles. You just can’t beat that for service.  Thanks Sergio, I owe you big time.

..... and in an atempt to save money on the cost of fuel, heres my new engine, all fitted and wired, just throw a ball and off you go, the dogs bollox, well no, she's a she. ha ha
