i remember seeing this bike posted a while back, with a link to tons of build pics. i can't for the life of me find that old thread, or links to anything other than a few studio "beauty shots". i'm interested in the guts from the frame up...

can anyone shed some light??

The problem is that his website does not exist anymore…

There are a few photos from the builder, "Tony Hannagan", but he hasn't been active on the site for a couple of years, by the looks of it.

I'm not surprised you are interested in this bike, given the description of the mods you have planned

All I can say is BOING! What a bike.

 

[GTRossi]

yeah... i ran down most of those links earlier. i'm just pissed because when i first saw the beveltech.com website i thought "wow, i need to download these photos" and never did... i have a bunch of the studio shots, but i'm really interested in the build photos. i seem to recall there were tons of shots of the process and specific mods to the frame.

this bike is pretty much the model for what i'd like to build - pure, clean and minimal with great lines and a narrow profile. i just want to do it with a DS1000 lump. so i'm thinking of starting with a newer 900ss frame and modding it a bit. my first thought was to start with a sport classic frame, but i want to use the monoshock swingarm with the shock in the center so the 900ss might be an easier starting point...

everything that has been on the web once, can always be found
with the web archive, check this:

http://web.archive.org/web/*/www.beveltech.org

 

[GTRossi]

hey muschi,

thanks for the link - this is the exact website i'm looking for. unfortunately, it comes up without any content...

i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong - all the pages load up without any images. i just get empty frames and some of the captions.

any ideas??

 

[brooksie]

I'll tell you what, these pics have made me seriously picking up an SS900 and doing a number on it. Great stuff!

 

[Muschi]

any ideas??

ah no, same here, first time that it happens with using the web-archive though.

:think:

the guy is a painter, paint job on the bike says it all.

SS Vs SC

Like some of us with a 900 SS and a SC I have the toughest time deciding which one to ride.... They are completely different but I love them both so much.... the perfect two bike stable....

I made some enquiries, and was able to find out that while Tony's web site is no longer up and running, he is still busy building bikes.

Cheers

be sure to also check

http://www.beveltech.com

for the rest of his work and current projects, where he is building
another one of those, with a mh900e headlight assembly this time.

He does some nice projects.
I love the polished alloy engine cases on those old bevels.
The way they use paint on the newer engines looks cheap.
