Stunning collection Craig was at waddos the other day seen what's next

[Kirk St Moritz]

Thanks Jazzy,

Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing the model C when Waddos worked his magic on it!

[Toddy]

Very nice collection young man how do you get them on the second level ?

[Kirk St Moritz]

Thanks.

I lift em up single-handedly Toddy!

I'm incredibly strong despite my 4 ft 6 inch stature!

What's with the change of name?

just wondering like.

Oh to have a garage like that, you lucky man....

Trouble is, how do you decide which one to take out for a ride, strict rotation or is one your favourite.

Thanks for sharing.

I was placed under the witness protection program and had to change my name and location due to death threats!

But my new identity has been opened up for all to see! I wouldn't care but the kids had just settled into a new school and I was once again feeling safe!

Ohhhh well! Another name, another town and a whole new persona to come to terms with again! Just hope that the death threats don't start again now!

I don't ride any of them! I just look at them and polish them!

Thought you didn't want any death threats! Love your double decker arrangement by-the-way.

Your slowly running out of room Craig what next ?

Your slowly running out of room Craig what next ?

I have run out of room!!!!!

I've got 4 more that you can't see in this pic!

I'm putting together a series 1 framebreather, with a TV 200 engine and original disc brake! Also a model D racer, my model C is undergoing a full factory spec restoration with Waddo, and my TV175s series 1, 2 and 3 are in the closing stages of being finished off.

I usually ride my Indian GP!

Lovely collection you're putting together there Craig - really like what look like original paint dls (125 and 150?). What about holding an open day Craig so non scooter riders like myself can admire them? Strictly no rally going scooterists invited. Entry only to those that hide rather than ride. Car and van owners welcome. Kids and pets welcome. No overnight stays. No alcohol. No music. Anyone having the audacity to arrive on a scooter must be able to prove that they were vanned up to within a 1 mile radius of your garage.

[Kirk St Moritz]

On closer inspection the DL 125 had been repainted many years ago Trev! BADLY! There's loads of things wrong with it so in time it'll get a full restoration!

Similarly the DL 150 is only partly original paint. It's been blown in in places and the struts are all out of line! I'm gonna repaint (properly) the parts that have been repainted an hopefully conserve those that arnt beyond saving! Complete strip, repair and rebuild on that one!

You can come round anytime you like Trev!

Scooter or no scooter!

Can't remember the end of the vega rebuild thread. Did it get all finished?

I admire your honesty.

Like the guy in Vegas amongst the walkway beggars with the sign ' Why lie? Need Beer'

I gave him $5

[Kirk St Moritz]

Ten of them aren't yet registered for British rds!

Of the ones that are registered with the DVLA, 5 require a number of finishing details in order to complete the restorations to the best of my ability! This takes a lot of time and money!

The remaining three are my SX 200, TV 200, and my Indian GP which I do ride!

I'm usually on my Indian GP as you know Mike!

There's honesty!

[Kirk St Moritz]

Can't remember the end of the vega rebuild thread. Did it get all finished?

Not yet! There is a hairline crack in the casing around the gearbox endplate studs! I need to strip the engine down again and have it welded up! Rebuild the engine and then it'll be finished!

Time, money and a lot of ongoing and new projects have meant it's on hold at the moment!

I have a similar system in my garage - how do you get your scooters up to the top deck - safely?
