KICKBACK Custom Classic Bike Show

 I'm very humbled by your interest in displaying my customised 1949 Norton (lovingly known as Grace) at next year's Kickback show, under the category of a Modified Classic. This is the second bike I've built since 2015, both just for myself and only to satisfy the spark that has and continues to burn between my ears.  Both bikes (Ethel a 1943 customised Norton & Grace - named after the two daughters of James Lansdown Norton) are my sole design and are hand-built in my garage.  Fabrication of tanks and guards and not forgetting the artwork/painting/leatherwork have been undertaken by skilled professionals that are mostly local to me - the Leatherwork however went a little further afield to South Shields. Before dipping my toe into bringing Ethel & Grace back to life, I had not even rebuilt a pushbike.  So you can imagine that I know a whole lot more swear words now than I ever did prior to 2015! Both of my bikes are not perfect, I have built them to ride and enjoy. 

David's MV 1090 has reached the Finals of the 2022 National Championships at KICKBACK next April.
