I've always liked the look of that build - nice and crisp looking 8)

I like that you keep coming back and tweeking it too  ;D

Interesting that you've decided to go with a gold stem now though mate - what you need there then is a nice mint NOS black stem pad to go with it - dunno where you'll get one of them from  :-X :LolLolLolLol:

Only kidding mate - no hard sell  :LolLolLolLol:

It's here when you want it  ;)

I know what you mean with the goose neck - had one on my minigoose as a kid BITD and you could never tighten the fooker enough to stop it budgin  :knuppel2: Luckily I don't ride any of mine that have the gooseneck on them now  ;)

It is a lovely lookin' build - and hats off to you for ridin a fully restored goose  :daumenhoch:

nickel Supergoose

Hmmmm good hunting steve - not too many of those babies about - 79 nickel supergoose 1 :smitten:

I've got a 1979 T stamped frame that was powdered before i got it  ::) - may test a little patch one day and see if it's still nickel underneath or stripped to bare metal  :-\

 :LolLolLolLol: I like it Steve - I was exactly the same hunting for my 1981 nickel minigoose - first bike I had as a kid (see avatar piccy  ;D ) got the right frame and forks now, but that'll be a slow build, got to be spot on spec as per it was BITD. I'll be doing a 1980 supergoose 1 (chrome though) very similar to that piccy you posted later on in the year.
I may build the other mini (79) for show and shine at MK though  ;)
