Paul's Drifter Restorations

Below are some pictures of the various Drifter Restorations I've done over the years.

This is Turq.

We picked this one up in parts (everything totally rusty) and the engine was completely seized. It was a complete basket case, but turned out a real head turner.

This is Two-tone

She was a complete strip down. Everything restored and I finished her off with 2-tone paint similar to the new Indians at the time.

This is Heidi's bike

I was asked to do a black and silver 2-tone on this one. I found the perfect silver on a Mercedes parked at Aldeburgh beach (while we were eating fish and chips)

All of the Fire & Steel accessories I shipped over from the States

This is vn drifter's bike.

When Marc asked me to spray his bike grey, I was a bit sceptical about the colour at first, but it turned out brilliantly and looks amazing.

This is Les's bike

She was after a baby blue but as they were hard to find she got a bargain red 800 and asked me to do a blue/cream 2-tone colour scheme on it. She then crafted a matching set of blue luggage.

This is Nigel's bike

He sold it to me when he gave up riding. The salt had got to a lot of the parts as it had spent most of it's life near the coast, so I stripped it down and refurbished everything to restore it to it's former glory, with a few special touches to make it stand out.

This is Little Red

She had a really good clean and polish, some paintwork on the rear guard, a Kawasaki solo seat with a seat rail I made, a pair of spotlights and finished off with bikini beach bars from the States

The bike next to her is Goldie

As it's such a long time ago I can't remember where she came from, needless to say, she was given plenty of TLC
