Me thinks that thar bridge is the QE2 bridge on the M25 over the Thames.
I could be wrong.

I think you could be right.

The QE2 was my first guess but it appears to have both directions and that bridge is 1 way. Going south. They also, being professional photographers would have stood with the sun behind them meaning the bridge would curve the other way. Agg just a thought.

Hi Martin !
How much modifying did you have to do to fit the motor ? I could build something like this if i had time 
You sell any fitting kit for this ..... ?

Quite alot Neal, cutting off the front engine mounting bars and making new steel side frames. It was just a one-off for my own wierd purposes, so no fitting kits... if you want one, make it yourself

Oh, and the pipes are swoopy to fit inside the fairing easily, it does have a full fairing, so the pipe shape isn't actually that important..

Bought my copy this after'.  Nice one, Martin.  It's about time one of your great creations was featured to showcase your talents, qualified engineer or not.  'Cause of my article & yours "singing your praises" you'll be busier than ever this winter !

Top effort guys, I have been a subscriber to the magazine since the 2nd issue. Nice to see you getting the praise you deserve.

I remember Wullie's thread on the old forum about his bike and the problem he had with the crank, now its famous in print together with martins creation, shame it used a H*nda frame though 

Fab pics of teh TZR125, exactly the same bike I used to own when I was 17, as was usual at the time I pegged the valve wide open and had to ride around slipping the clutch until the power came on at 7k - happy memories
