Re: Gearbox Fluids

My buddy Joe and I went to see Mike more than two years ago now and I can say email was pretty futile and phone contact was difficult as he wanders around his property during the day. He has some things left a...

Re: Ariel VB 600 1951 with 1954 Steib S500 sidecar for sale

Sweden, yes a bit far for me as I am in BC Canada. I have a '56 VH Red Hunter and a '51 SQ4, with a '35 twin port 500 on the bench and a '53 MK2 waiting its turn. Lots of others in the shed as well. I know a fellow in Vancouver who had a couple of TRW on sale last summer and I can check with him if ...

New Year = new bike

Well, I want to start off by wishing all a very happy New Year. As the tag line suggests... who is working on what for 2019? For my part I am finishing off a 1969 Suzuki Stinger followed by assembling the engine for my 1948 BSA A7 long stroke; then the fun begins. I have my '51 SQ4 to refurbish for ...

Ariel on the Cannonball

HI, anyone else here following Charles Falco on his 1928 Model C doing the run this year? He has done quite well and the bike has performed very well indeed.
