Born Again Bikes restorations, refurbs & overhauls

Thread title pretty much says it all. Although I've been mainly doing British stuff (Triumph, Norton & BSA) for my clients since 2005, I've been wrenching on Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, HD, Suzuki, Moto-Guzzi, BMW, Penton, Montesa, Bultaco, DKW and a few others over the last 40 years.

I've done quite a few overhauls, restorations and custom builds, and several specific salvage rebuilds (Kaw ZRX's) - the best way to lose money fast!

I am not a hater; I don't hate modern bikes. I just happen to love the vintage stuff.

I learned my lesson early on the forums (2000) not to be too commercial. I don't do onsie-twosie parts orders unless it's a special deal that I happen to have, or know of. I try to limit my parts sales to large orders as in overhauls and restoration projects; in those cases, I can typically save the buyer enough to get decent tires & battery "free" (when compared to many of the other well-known vintage parts resellers).

I don't sell junk. I use what I sell.

My website has plenty to look at, if you care to look into my history. I'm sorry if you have Firefox or other than IE, I understand some of these users have issues with the way text spills over the photos. One of these days, I'll actually pay someone who knows what they're doing to create a REAL website for me; for now, you are looking at a first attempt with a $20 software program. Born Again Bikes

You can find me on several Delphi forums including Classic & Vintage Bikes, Classic Triumph Twins & Triples, Classic Hondas, Classic Kawasaki, Brit Iron Rebels, The New Triumph Bonneville Forum, and Norton Riders Collective. I'm the moderator of the Classics, Vintage & Veteran section of TriumphRat.net, as well as the Classics section of TriumphTalk.Com. I'm on Britbike.Com, Accessnorton.Com, and around the Classic sections of ZRXOA.org and Cycle World forum. "I've been everywhere, man"...

Went to your site and only got " site can't be found" message

Works fine for me.

Nice restorations. I've often considered delving into the restoration of an old Brit bike. Perhaps someday.

Worked for me

From time to time, some people seem to have issues getting in.

Try .net (instead of .com); I own both domain names.

Paul, have you been on www.motorcyclistcafe.com ? I think you'd fit right in over there.

Looks like a good forum, but I'm already on over a dozen, and that's nearly a dozen too many!

Agreed. But stop by every now and then. The folks over there would really have an appreciation for the work that you do.
