A good tip for working with glass fibre, wether laying it up or cutting and grinding it, is to use talcum powder on your hands, arms or any other exposed skin, it really stops any itchiness. I got this tip a few years ago when doing a load of layup work and it really works, the person who told me said it was the same reason that barbers will put talc on your neck before a haircut, the talc stops the small particles from lodging in your pores.
Give it a try.
Great vid as always btw.
David thats Genius.. of course, and what a simple trick too... i love those old trade tricks that get passed down... cheers mate, thats why i love RUclips..!
Looking good Delboy
Cant wait for the next update!!!
Cheers Steven !
Love your work mate, keep the videos coming, excellent entertainment, cheers.
well done del ! love the white board, it's amazing how things add up
Sure thing Ichiban, I made sure I kept a tally right form the start, or I would never have believed it myself ! Building custom bikes costs a lot of money... and that's without considering the time! No wonder OCC charge so much lol...
Another good video thank you Del, I enjoy watching them all
Thanks buddy... appreciated!
Awesome stuff mate you the man delboy
Awesome,,,,, you always seem to amaze me. Penny and You have a nice day and safe riding
Thanks so much Paul, its a lot of fun, and im finally making some real progress now.. taker care and have a good week... D&Px
hi del i haven’t checked in here for a while - since it was a huge bubbley rear end actually, you’ve changed it by the looks of things and it looks absolutely awesome now 👍🏼👍🏼 I admire how hard you work with these with a job on the side too, respect !!
Thanks buddy, it's a labour of love, and am enjoying the journey !
Love your work. Keep it up.
this is really getting the juices flowing now del I love all the wee bits you never see getting done great job m8 keep up the good work atb to you and penny iain
Hi Iain, thanks buddy, there's a lot to building a biike, and most of it is detail, like when you see an advert for an abandoned project, its an engine in a frame, rolling on its wheels, and the advert usually says "all the major work done".. but in reality, its about 10% done...lol
Gorgeous!!! 🤙
Great viewing del genius at work.
awsome job del
Looking cool matey 👍👍
Nice touch the sunk bolts. You've got it on the run now.
Thanks buddy, finally feels like I'm making progress at last !
Coming together nicely Del.
Cheers Dave, good to hear from you buddy... hope life is good!
Your work is a joy to watch, Del. The PPPPPP philosophy is always apparent as is your ability to adapt, improvise and overcome. Add your skills and fine video-making and my evening is complete... yet again. Looking forward to the next episode. Great stuff 👍
Thanks Keith, sound like a kindred spirit there mate, ex-Army yoursrlf ill bet... the project is lots of fun, and ive been able to learn a lot from it along the way, thanks for yourr support and kind words.. Del.

Cheers buddy, awesome tool aye?! Have a great week, always good to hear from ya, D&Px
lol ear protectors for a dremel
The panel 'howls' when you grind on it with die.. and i like me hearing.. i do this almost ever day mate, and after 30 years still have pretty much perfect hearing. pays to look after yours senses
Hello , did not look at your videos for a long time, because I keep this for special days. Is then a day with his videos in feature length. The project with the new Seat is so awesome. Great Streetfigher. Look at you so much and hope that I will Back with my Videos soon. Keep it up. Best working greetings Ralf
Sorry, my english is not so good...
Hallo Ralf, schön von dir zu hören ... froh, dass du die Videos genießt, es ist immer wunderbar, nette Kommentare von unseren Zuschauern in Deutschland zu bekommen, da du das letzte Land bist, das den Streetfighter-Stil vertritt und deutsche Kämpfer die coolsten und am härtesten sind ... bleib in Kontakt, alles Gute, Del
Exerlent as always
cool
Love you videos.
👍
Lovely work as always. Round about the 2min mark I see the hub of the dremil tool eating away at your fibreglass, I think that might have contributed to the gap. So how are you going to manage rainwater running in that gap?
Hi Adrian, what gap are you talking about mate? There has to be gap between the seat unit and the tank or they'll rub together and damage the paint as they're rubber mounted...
Hi Del, pouring that liquid resin to set the tubes in place looked really satisfing, any chance you could make it pivotal to allow rider height adjustable
Not really necessary buddy, pivoting from the rear will change the angle of the seat and also close the gap which is small enough as it is lol !
Just watched all the vid and you already answered my question. Duh! I need a cuppa.
Ha ha, its all in there somewhere..! Thanks for your support buddy..
(P) Starting at cowboy time 😀
Another early start eh Del? Coming along nicely. Are you going to put a race pad/seat on that! You might be sliding around like Torville and Dean otherwise!
Checked out this vid as I am on with rectifying the issue I have with the tail unit the previous owner made but hadn't made provision for the fuel tap access.
So I have the daunting task of accurately marking the exact place to drill a guide hole from the inside then drill with a hole saw and making the subsequent french tube.
No small task. Not looking forward to this at all!!!
Hi Marc, ive had that kind of remit a few times, maybe try a 'cone' or 'step drill' rather then a hole saw.. that way you'll be opening the hole out a little at a time and if you're off target a little you can correct the hole's position with a round file..!!! just a thought.?
@@Moonfleet41 thanks Del x
What happened to that last tail piece with the Harley tank
hi Dan, its stored up on top of the units out of the way, ill use it another time for another project...
hiya del/penny its mike/jan . quick question for you replaced me front factory brake hoses. for braided. can i use a strip of that hose to replace the short hose at the rear to make it longer. want to move it from where it is you see a little higher up you see other wise am going have to take the side panel off every time i fill the reservoir its a pain in the rear. so can i just cut a length off the old brake hoses to save pennys lol ;-) cheers mike its the 600bandit s 1998................ ;-)
Hi Mike, I assume you mean can you cut a lump of the factory rubber brake hose you've replaced as a feed supply hose from reservoir to master cylinder on the rear? Is that the question? If so, then yes you can, provided the hose fits comfortably over the hard hoses without stretching too much because it's not armoured hose, so if you stretch it too much it could split, but I would imagine, at a guess, that it's roughly a compatible size, just check to be sure!
ok thank you for that brother best to penny as usual cheers mike.........
where did you get the reservoir hose for the fighter build del need at least 300mm to be safe ;-)
@@janwoodworth5072 The hose was some old armoured fuel hose ive had for a long time.. can;t remember where i got it.. had it in the cupboard for ages.. Sorry i can be more help buddy.
lol no probs brother thank you ;-)
Nice quick video, Del. What type of drill bit was that white one you used? Cheers 🏍👍🏍
Hi Gary, sorry, didn't have much more time to keep going that day, but it'll be a monster session at the weekend, going to send the whole day on it and make the rear mounts on the structure, so back to welding fabrication... my favorite pastime..! the white drill was a 'Hole saw' or hole cutter... like a serrated tube with a drill bit in the middle, ill be using it for the back end too, so ill show them in more detail maybe... Thanks for your constant support brother, its always good to haar from you.. D&Px
C. Henderson. Yep, thats it.
C. Henderson I do? 😉
Moonfleet41 - All good! And thx, Del... just never saw one in white with perforations . Thought it might have been specific to fiberglass.
Yeah thats a culmination of a lot of thinking.. take care brother ...☮❤
Sure is my old mate, but think I've got in on the run lol !
Anybody know what he means by 'French tubes'?
Hi Jeff, there is a legendary old school car customising discipline called 'frenching', usually on the lead-sled style kustom cars where they buried the lights and the aerials down inside a tube so that from the side they were invisible... so the term 'frenching' means to fit a tube inside which something can be mounted, hence the term french tubes...in this case, I'm frenching the mount bolts that hold the tail on - if you Google it, you'll see plenty of evidence of it, specially in Google Images!
Frenching comes from word French cuffs as del said above
'French tubes' from the title only got me French porn and a trauma chest catheter. LOL! 'Frenching tubes' is what I needed to find more info. Thanks!!
