    newbie from sheffield uk

    hi all
    I have been lurking on this site for quite a while & reading the vey informative posts, & getting the odd spec i have needed,so i decided it was time for me to join.
    Im from sheffield in the UK so we have some fantasic rides into derbyshire, with good meeting places like matock, squires & cat & fiddle.
    I have been building custom bikes for over 30 years on & off & do it for a living now along with selling & manufacturing cafe racer parts.
    Back in the early 80's i built an endurace type replica & a triumph cafe racer, that style of bike has stuck with me (even though i have a couple of ducati sports bikes too) & now that passion has turned into my profession.
    My collection of gs's is approx 1 gsx250 5 or more gs550's 3 gs850's gs1000 gsxr750 gsxr1100 (the gsxrs are for the engines sold the rest off the 750 is going in a gs550 frame & the 1100 is going in a spare gsx1100e monoshoked frame i have) 1 gsx1100 as ive just sold the other gsx1100, also have a few (10ish) old honda cd200 that we turn into cafe racers & a trick carbon fibre xbr500 honda single

      Welcome to another Brit.

      You are going to have to spill the beans on who or how you make them exhaust pipes. I've gotta have some of that.

      Greetings
