  • Happy new year to you all!
    Mr Miller and the workshop team have big ambitions for this year.
    With 9 new bikes acquired during the month of December, they will certainly have enough on their plate to keep them occupied!
    On show in this instalment are 3 rare bikes: a New Hudson, a Swiss Zehnder and one that is very close to Sam's heart; the 1958 Ariel 500 HT5 'XOB 440' - ridden by his good friend Ron Langston to gold medal glory in the 1958 International Six Days Trial, held at Garmisch Partenkirchen, West Germany.
    We hope you enjoy the video and we are excited to bring you more throughout the year! 😁

    Just discovered Sammy fairy recently, what an amazing man. I can watch his videos for hours, the experience and knowledge he has is so fascinating. And he still rides to boot, what an inspiration. I hope to be riding into my 80s too, thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge, I find it second to none 👍🏍

    Great video Mr Miller. I love your centring tool. I have a request. Please could you do a talk about Dunelt motorcycles. My grandfather had one and always praised it. The only one I have seen is at your museum. Thanks for the great videos.

    Reminds me of the days I wrenched on BSAs and Nortons. Still recall that some of the British bikes I worked on didn't have timing marks indexed. So I had to use a dial indicator and flywheel gauge to index them on.

    Do you do your own blast cleaning and polishing in house? I remember a motorcycle shop I once worked at where I used to vapor blast as well as dry blast parts that customers brought in to be done, also alloy polishing too. It was very rewarding work seeing parts come in looking like they had just been picked up off a scrap heap and going out looking like new. That sort of work was a second string to the bow in winter when normal trade used to slow down.
