Custom Zephyr 810

A bike I built in the early noughties and sold about three or four years ago. Not terribly fast but pretty, comfortable and lovely to rumble around town on. It also got a lot of attention.

I'm sorry I sold it but I was young and I needed the money...

10 Years Ago - Morocco April 2003

Some old pictures I found of a solo trip to the desert that I made in April/May of 2003. The bike was a 1986 Honda XL600L with a big tank off a XL600M and very little else.

The franken-motor was a miss-mash of Honda RFVC motors including an XR, XL and XBR parts with a Honda NX650 Dominator crankcase and barrel. It was rebored to 720cc with a Wiseco piston.

The bike was light, torquey and was fantastic to ride in the desert without luggage but was a pig when laden down with tools, camping gear and water.
