At Last!! First Build completed What do think??

[Broggie]

By any standards that's a good build, not just as a first one.  As for the twin pinchers, well you'd have to be pretty mean to knock it for that....and to be honest, if a bike looks good it looks good end of story...

Come on...Who on here would restore an ugly bike to factory ugliness...that's like Turkeys voting for an early Christmas.


Good build, well done

Nice, ive never been near to owning a Kuwi, but that it tempting me...

I also used twin pinchers on my first builds, until I realised my errors  and swapped for a one piece Takagi on one and a NOS Hanabishi 3 piece on the other.  I agree though, that they look the part, just a shame when everything else is of the era.

My final point is a general one to everyone.  I didnt use em in the old days, but how the hell did/do you reach those tech 2 levers?
