My opinion.
I like the Rhyme
Moths are lost in time
There is a failing
not plain sailing
Get eccentric
Feel electric
Reducing concentric
Find the youth
There is no truth.
What the ****
Just my luck
Need a theme
Lost my esteem
Me brain is broke
And it ainât no joke
Canât wait to see
The bomber wheelie
Me youth is gone
And thatâs the truth
D man
You will see it DM
So will I ad infinitum
Silence the petrol ghosts
The electric surgence toasts
Not sure, when or where
But, selfishly no longer care
Short days left to boast
Live the minutes to the most.
Been to the park with the Sur ron today, note I was slightly illegal, had to take the number plate off because when the suspension is compressed, it was catching the rear tyre. There is another bracket available which fits right under the seat, where there is less travel, but its out of stock, so, doing my best to avoid public roads at the moment.

Just noticed the bike got a bit dirty so cleaned it and fitted these, it narked me having to buy them after paying for the bike, but that is how it is, a half mudguard and chainguard.

The two M6x12mm bolts that hold the chainguard on are ÂŁ4.49 Ea from Sur ron UK, you can buy X50 (stainless) from Screwfix for ÂŁ3.39.
The Sur Ron looks cool Spitty !
You gonna keep that one for the missus while you ride the other one?
Whatâs the range and speed on the Sur Ron ??

Canât wait to see Spitty wheelying !!

DM, in 60V form, about 50 miles range, and around 53mph, in 72v form around 75 mile range, and 65mph, but, this is an off roader, for road use there are better options.
The Mudguard and Chainguard in place.

The 48 spare machine screws, maybe I can sell them for ÂŁ3.00 odd each.

Because there is no manual for building a Stealth Bomber rip off bike, things can get a bit tricky. I needed a fused kill switch, but, no being expert at electronics had no idea what capacity was needed, I know the motor is 8000 watts and the battery is 72 volts, 30 amp hour, but there was no resource on the net, so I phoned two electrical factors, they were so cagey, they made out I was building a Bomb, not a Bomber:-), even Judd could not help, so, I just ordered one the same as in the Sur ron, shit or bust its getting fitted and see what happens.

Cool machine Spitty a credit to your skills, happy riding mateâŠ
A 100A fuse eems a lot to me Spitty! But what do l know ?
What is the motor rated at ?
Praps itâs to allow for starting surge? But l dunno!!
My thinking is, if itâs too high then the motor and loom wonât have
any protection ?
Good luck, Donkeyman!

Thanks Barry, got to get a van now to explore pastures new.
Been out on the Sur ron again today, went trailing without helmet, but as soon as I hit about 30mph, got a face full of flies, still wonât need dinner now.
The Beamer is off for respray next month hopefully, had to get it out of hiding, ainât been used for two years now.
Bloody hell Spitty,
You must be spending more than Boris Johnson ??
Have you trod in some dogshyte ??
Donkeyman!
Things need bringing to a head, the inventory is under control.
Just waiting for the Crankset, Chain and Battery Charger to arrive for the Bomber, then the Son and I are off to pastures new.
