Hi, my name is Arren Day. This is the first forum I have ever joined, so please forgive my lack of computer skills.
I am a caveman.
I own and operate a small shop in Port Townsend where I restore classic yachts and motorcycles. We have a full woodworking shop and growing machine shop.
I fell in love with bikes as a child in my grandfather's machine shop. He built and raced Indians, Bultaco's, and eventually Japanese bikes on the flat track circuit. My first ride was a little Honda 50cc dirt bike that he put together out of spare parts from his scrap bins...
I am currently riding a '71 BMW R60/5. Cute, and a little smokey from worn valve guides, but great around town.
My project bikes include:
1964 Royal Enfield Interceptor 750cc. Near the end of the British built RE's, I am told.
1970 BMW cafe conversion.
1977 BMW R75GS conversion.
I love the idea of this new group, thanks for putting it all together!
Looking forward to learning more about British motorcycles from the group.
 
Thanks for finding and joining. Keep checking back and post some of your projects so we can see what you are doing. We need to get over there and see some of the things that are going on....Welcome to the club.... 8-)
 
Arren,
Sorry I didn't give you more notice of the last event. Hope you can make one in the future. I will miss it as George M. and I will be on the salt at Bonneville trying to set a record with Super Fly. Wish us luck.
