Sir your collection has made my jaws touch the floor. The restoration job that you do is truly admirable, You detailing is awesome and the restored bikes looks like they have just appeared form the past in full glory.
Keep up the good work..
Cheers!!!

Thumbs up Thankssssssssssssssssss ALLLLLLLLLLL

Thank you friends for the compliments !1
I have been almost off the thread for nearly a month,
From tomm I have decided to post pics of my un restored bikes also with some pieces of history , facts & figures.
My on going project & its status:
1) James Ml 125 >>>>>> All most completed,waiting for the inbuilt power coil to be fixed @
2) Piaggio Ape' type B 1954 >>>>>>>>40% of work pending
3) Royal Enfeild's FANTABULUS Scooter >>>>>Its completed ,if I decide to settle with company paint( Faded miserably , though!!)
But.....Let me do it,strictly sticking to original paint scheme,after completing 1 & 2
Other machines have to wait for their turn
ps: since, nowadays I take few bike & scoot restoration works for my close friends,if they disparately need some thing from me !!!
* In this list just completed a VBA Vespa of my Friend Sabari
** A Lambretta Li 150 (1961) to another friend Mr.Mohan
*** A lamber....(1972) to Parthava Kannan.
& many reproduction parts for my friends Brit machines.
On going projects( friend's) a VBA vespa & a '58 Royal Enfeild to Raaj.
And just few weeks before completed a JAMES ML bike restoration to my young friend Pratap Henry
pps: Other then my machines, I'll post others bike pics if those guys are willing
