Heres another: recent OM Flyer off of ebay as F&F.  Awful respray so it will be stripped, maybe polished or may be powder coat.  Either way, it will need new stickers.  If anyone has a set of retro OM stickers for sale or to copy I would be grateful.
May race this next season.





And I found this in the lounge:  1978 S&S Headers cruiser.  Just back from the powder coaters, this is as near to how the bike was back in 1982.  Frame, rims, bars, stem, crank, saddle, post and brake are all original.  Forks, grips, tyres, hubs, pedals,  spokes, etc are NOS.  Just needs stickers to finish.  This is a goal fulfilled.

This will be my first cruiser.  Rebel 24", the only one I know of personally making it a pretty rare beast.

From BITD, handbuilt in small numbers (3 tops i would think) in Belper, Derbyshire i rode a STEVE WATSON, worth a look if only for Dale's Powerlite and another Rebel!



and finaly from NBMXA Brits in 86, i have this race on video still, Tony Hoffman introduces it, 179 Motos-1400 riders! we even had 8ths in 13-15 cruisers

Nice pics Torker the Midlands.  Cool to see something unusual and rare (never heard of Steve Watson - other than the Newcy and Everton footballer who used to do somersault throw-ins).

Those forks in the first pic look really skinny.  Did they last (or is the answer in the third pic as it looks like different/stronger forks in that pic).

Mike,
I think your right about the forks! I only noticed it myself as i was posting though, not got a clue what forks i put on it or why?, it was a nice bike though. Steve Watson raced 35+ at the greyhound stadium for a while and made various family members frames. I bought it from him when he packed up i think. This is the only other Cruiser he made i think
Bunneys NBMXA EM regional 86. Rob Males on a Hutch + Jason Mellors on a Steve Watson + name escapes me on a Floval
