Well, I might do a video of the bike once it is finished, or at least running. The forks are of a Fury, or VAX Interceptor. Almost like the model G, but still a little different. These were taken from my Interceptor where they didn't fit anyway. Badly bent, probably by a crash, but nothing a tittle heat may not fix :)
Hi, the bitumen was a chunk I got from a nice fellow who had this in his shed for about 30 years and thought this was a good use for it :-) It can be obtained from hardware stores and is meant for roofing and such. Only problem: Not many stores have this "hot melt bitumen" anymore and if they do, you have to take a whole 30kg or even more! So I got lucky to get a smaller piece for free. Sometimes this stuff shows up in the classifieds, so have an eye open for it.
Very nice job you've made of that 👍
