The Evolution Of "night Fury"

[jez NF]

Refresh the carpets time. Old job I did was getting on in age and thought it would be nice to spruce it up again.

Bunnings do a nice thinner more pliable version as well so very keen to have this one up and running and see how hard it is to massage into shape.

New seats and harnesses are 90% in. Few more bits to tidy up which I should have done in the next couple of weeks.

Looking great so far !

Night Fury is still going strong. Just added a few recent pics.

I have a few projects lined up so stay tuned - I plan to breathe new life into this thread soon!!

[jez NF]

So I ride and race motorcycles for fun and have always used a van to transport my track weapons. Figured towing a racebike with a skyline would be different and if done right could - "look fully sik" or quite cool for us grown ups lol.

Pic of yours truly on two wheels

I also have a trailer already kitted out to transport my bikes

...and I have a spare set of rims that match the car that I was going to rebarrel to get deeper dish at some stage but they have just been gathering dust.

Sooooooo it is only logical....

Stay tuned !!

I like your thinking! Looking forward to see how it turns out.

This will be sick

Trailer prep is underway...

Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit

Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint

 

Then added some carpet

[jez NF]

75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

[jez NF]

Been a busy but productive day. Axle and hubs acquired. All fitted up after a bit of modifying. Need to sort out wider mudguards and running light reflector covers but other than that the trailer is gooood to go !!

[Milkmun]

Damn you’ve done well, definitely snapping necks.

You got any more detailed photos of the tow ball set up?

Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer. 

I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
