Kangol Pinto Helmet

My old Kangol Pinto "crash" helmet from 1992 which I sprayed matt black , re-lined with towelling and made the 4 stickers in the first photo for it. They are my copies of the ones in the original Tim Page Vietnam photo of the helicopter pilot's flight helmet.
The Matchless transfer on the front was laquered over, but is now peeling off and the other one is an original Pack sticker given to me by Kirk Brandon at their last ever gig at the 101 club in St John's Hill.
Which was where King Kurt used to play regularly.

At The Drive In

At The Drive In go fucking beserk on Jools Holland and then some talentless chimp tries to be funny.
They are one of my all time favorite bands and I just heard they are reforming.

SR250 forks rebuilt.

SR250 forks rebuilt, polished and new taper roller bearing in yokes. It's getting a 21" front wheel soon.

Schott jacket

In the early 1990's this was the jacket to have. Schott down filled with a leather "waistcoat" front and zip off sleeves. One of the best riding jackets ever. Warm and cool. I'm rocking mine this winter.

XL250S street tracker

This is my 1980 Honda XL250S Flat / Street Tracker in it's nearly finished form.
I have just added a small screen on the bars and it's ready for an MOT any day now.
It's got a 60's Honda CL175 tank, old alloy Miller headlight, stainless steel reinforced seat unit, 23" front, 18" rear wheels, Micron exhaust, Montesa front guard, twin rear lights, Rover Hurricane gray paint.
I stripped this back to a bare frame and re-built it as a winter bike.

More Vietnam Pendants

These are the other Pendants I've made, all exact copies of the Vietnam produced 60's originals.

The Pack - Heathen

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnCGyFNLUWo&feature=related

Best band I ever saw.
I played drums with the guitarist Simon Werner (RIP) and the bassist, his brother, John, in The Straps, when The Pack split up.
Kirk Brandon went on to form Theatre of Hate and Spear of Destiny.
The Pack ruled, though, every song a blinder.
They had a song called Over the Rainbow, and I only ever heard it live and on a bad bootleg cassette.
Would love to hear a studio version.
