Son of a Gun

Wednesday, August 31, 2011

Larry Houghton of Lamb Engineering machined and fabricated almost all parts of this bike. The engine is from an old racing 1951 BSA. All materials were sourced from his friends' scrap bin, and rest of parts (engine, gearbox, wheels etc.) were gathered from eBay.



Amall TT carb brakes and all parts made and designed by Larry himself. The design were inspired by cross between 60s racing Hondas, FSIE Yamahas and British motorcycle heritage.



According to Larry, the build time is in excess of 1400hrs, although monetary costs fairly small, approx 9000 dollars including paint.



He named the bike "Son of a Gun". There is his shop's web site but it was not working when I visited...www.lamb-engineering.com
