That bike and workshop looks very familiar . . . . .Oh wait. Its mine!
To be dead honest, I think the same thing sometimes.
Thing is, I work long hours (typically 12 hours a day, with one day / week off), and very rarely get the opportunity to spend more than an hour on the build.
Im stuck now without a cylinder / piston / rings, which means I cannot start on building the exhaust, or fitting the single radiator.
But I'll get there eventually.

Re: found this current ongoing CRM cafe build
Since I have very little time and another project keeping me from completing this build, I thought the best thing to do, would be to buy a customized (by a Harley rider. . . . yuck) used, abused and violated '61 BMW R27.
But the CRM should be running soon (ish).
Still busy fiddling with the subframe / rearend and a exhaust.
