SJ'S 840 STREETSCRAMBLER - FINISHED !

Pipes by Co-built

Paint by Altamura

Build by Redmax

Special parts Dirtylanesussex

tank/seat/bars/etc Redmax

The HAMAMATSU HOTROD !

We showed Steve's new 840 at the Ace this weekend and MCN jumped straight on it for a feature ! The bike has been a labour of love here and we could'nt wait to show it off to everyone . Steve (who supplies Yam spares - dirtylanesussex.co.uk ) rode it in fron Sussex and reported nifty performance from his 840cc big bore motor combined with snappy handling from the lightweight bike - his smile said it all !

This Yam has an 840 cc motor , with H/C pistons mild cam , balancing /porting work , performance stainless pipes and dell'orto pumper carbs.

Vintage Yam DT360 tank , Bultaco Astro redmax seat , Redmax Flattrack bars , Tarozzi rearsets , Koso digi dash , R6 forks and four piston calipers , Mag wheels and Tracker tyres and a very funky paintjob complete the picture .

Steve was intimately involved with the build putting a lot of his heart into finding the right parts and desighning the paint , and it shows . Glenn here in the Redmax workshop conspiring to come up with some real neat signature items across the bike (rear lamp , chain gaurd , heat shields etc ). Credit where it's due .

An enjoyable build - we're looking forwards to Steve's next XS .... will it be a cafe racer or a bobber ?? ... keep tuned .

ROLLERBURN ROCKED MY SOCKS OFF !

Back this mid-day from ROLLERBURN , which obviously was fab .
Great vibe from the start with a lot of like minded Flattrack Hep-cats turning up to display their rockin' bikes around the hall .
Rach said of the Stall/stands there - I've never been to a show where all the stands were interesting , i just don't know where to start ! (however she soon started spending and i'm not sure she stopped !)
Pics / Videos here on Flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/redmaxspeedshop/sets/72157628066927189/
It was a cultural mish-mash of art/style/cool/motorsickle mania and music .
Not to mention the surf/skate /cycle culture happening thing going on ....
When am i going to mention the Motorsickle /Rollergirl drag racing and Guy Martin ?
Well , i just did - but first star of the show for me was off his head northern comic - Charlie Chuck - MONKEY !
Anyway when the ROLLERBALL gig started and the Two painted up Co-Builts shot past with Rollergirls sliding on their (sexy) asses past us - then appeared a vision of a third rider on another Co-Built bike towing another Gurl and it was Mr Chuck !
I tell you it was like the ghost of Simoncelli in a 70's dinner suit with a touch of Terets thrown in i even forgot Guy Martin was even there !.
However Rach soon reminded me by tracking him down and Having me take their pic for her !
I got some great Video of that all going on , will load it up when fully awake later .
The minute the Bike engines died out The Stags chimed in hard n fast - anyone who has'nt seen em should and their crazy mix of 60's beat band/garage sounds is worth the trip anywhere .
The first band was just a wall of noise for me - but a lot of people dug it (Hip priests) but i liked the second band from france a lot more (Les terribles) and they had the sound set up a lot better too .
It was great to see a load of my mates over from France too - Hope no-one came a cropper in the Pea soup fog we had all the way home .
You know a thing like this only happens occasionally and i'm glad i was there .
And any time you've been anywhere and wanna tell someone else about it - you know you went somewhere worthwhile and was part of something good .

Thanks to Glenn and Shaun for carting my stall 180 miles and setting it up for me whilst i schmoozed around at the NEC show with Rach that morning !
BIG thanks to the Sideburn team , co-built and Skootafarm boys for makin it happen .
OH and those ROLLERGIRLS for makin it oh so horny .
Not Guy Martin Rach .

This crap video explains how Rollerderby works , but i've got some great footage of the Rollerburn Drag races to load up tommorow !



Second video is of Rollerburn crash - Gurl on her ass ! filmed from bottom of strip - watch her slide , smell the fishnets burn ! mmmm.
Gonna upload a few more vids to my Flickr page tomorrow .

REDMAX @ ROLLERBURN , WE'LL BE THERE !

OK , you guys - we are gonna be at ROLLERBURN , in fact it's unthinkable that we would'nt really !
So anyone want to pick up parts from us on the day - just gimmee a ring in advance and we'll pack em for you !
We are having a stand and bringing 3 bikes for the show (not Rach's Cafe racer tho as she's comitted to the NEC show ) .
Want to thank Glenn and his son Shaun for driving the whole plot up there and Gary Inman for making it possible for me as i did'nt think i could do it (injuries etc).
Also thanks to Scootafarm Dave as i know he's putting alot into this show with Gary.
Oooh nearly forgot Anna and the Co-built boys !
See u all there , Steve .

REDMAX @ ROLLERBURN IS COMING ! BE THERE !

We are now having a stand and some bikes on show at ROLLERBURN , Sat 19th Newark Showground ! Thanks to all for the help to make it happen . If u wanna collect parts there , just let me know in advance !

Rollerburn is a Sideburn Mag production that promises to be the best show in town for November !

This is their own words on the subject -

Sideburn magazine, the world’s most suave motorcycle magazine, is organising and promoting a one-off, cross-genre event to go down in history.
Rollerburn is a festival of two-wheeled death traps and roller derby vixens. On Saturday 19 November 2011, at Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire, we will host nine hours of family entertainment incorporating a full roller derby match, followed by the world’s first (and probably last) Indoor Rollerball drag race: three lightning fast racers riding three motorcycles towing three fearless roller girls. One winner.
One of the confirmed racers is Guy Martin, arguably Britain’s favourite bike racer, Isle of Man TT hero, star of TT 3D – Closer to the Edge and the BBC primetime series – The Boat That Guy Built. His attendance guarantees a sell-out crowd.

In addition we have:
•Invite-only custom show of the finest custom bikes
•A live set from the UK’s premier garage ‘craperet’ act, The Stags
•A further two top bands
•Slalom skateboard demo
•Rollergirl sprint races
•Indoor flat track demo
•Top DJS including Sir Johnny Alpha
•Loads of vendor stalls
•Bar and food dealers
•Our favourite artists on display
•Launch of Sideburn 9
