The words and comments are mine - Richard is too modest a fellow to praise his own work :))
Richard is by trade a metalworker so has skills that us mere amateurs can only dream of, to say nothing of access to some fancy machines (he claims not, but a welding machine, bandsaw and belt sander are not in the average workshop).
To continue, Richard managed to acquire a large piece of marine quality stainless steel from which he hast made several interesting accessories for the VX800. We have all seen the radiator overflow tank he made, Ultrabrace, headlamp hangers and the handlebar clamp (the one at TWO in 2003) see here.
So here are some extra pictures showing the handlebar clamp in the various stages of build.
For those interested here is a picture of the master himself - been at the Australian wine again ? :))
