Hey Carlos, Whats the older bike that is sitting against the wall??

 

[Carlos]

Thanks all for the wellcoming.

The FZ1 is a 2002 Canadian model I have bought new. It was a special import since Yamaha doesn't bring this model to my country.

The older is a 1951 Ariel NH 350; restoration not finished yet.

OOPS! sorry carlos i thought the ariel was an ajs

 

[FZ1riderNY]

Thats beautiful. I really dig the bars on the 51'. Very nice work Carlos. Are you doing the restoration yourself?

 

[Carlos]

The AJS and Ariels were very similar in appearance.

Yes, I do all the work on my bikes. Regular maintenance or restoration; I like it and feel more confident than sending them to someone else do the work. Weekends and nights are full of work, but I always have two or three bikes ready for riding.

My sentiments exactly. You also get a feeling of accomplishment when you've done a terrific job. Not to mention when people come up and compliment you on the bike. Keep up the good work! Billy.

Yes, that's very rewarding! Thanks.
