COCKNEY BANKER

How's this for a trick FXR?  One of my favourite bikes of the early 1990s, built by Kes (you can gather his club) RIP one of the most prolific builders of the time.

According to his feature in BSH magazine, it featured Kawasaki front end,  junkyard special Weber 45 carb (no catalogue parts here), loads of one-off metal work, superb flameout and rear shocks off a Lambretta!

Talk about ingenuity. This was a multi show winning feature bike built with brains not a bank balance.
Respect is due.
