    At last we have some progress to report on the new version 7 Clutch Covers!!

    Here is a pic of the 1st off (made in a hurry - so its not as perfect as they will be), but it is looking promising. Now at least I can cast the new rubber insert for the vacuum fixture that holds them still - whilst the face is machined and the casing fixing holes are drilled. They then get bolted to a crankcase half to machine the bores of the K/S and G/L holes and other stuff....

    The production run will begin once we have made a trial batch of 10 over the Christmas Holidays...

    The tool also will do the L/C cover - as it has a changeable insert.... IMG_2726.jpg IMG_2727.jpg

    Come and see us at the Telford Classic Dirt Bike Show here in the UK on the 17th and 18th of February St Quentin Gate, Telford, Shropshire TF3 4JH

    Where we will have one of our new 510 Twinshock Bikes on display, alongside my 1982 400 special WR as well as all the usual goodies you have come to expect!

    We are also launching the HVA-Factory sponsored, 4 Stroke Twinshock MX Championship series. Open to anyone on a suitable bike - with 3 x age catagories...

    This will develop over the next few years into a major series - and will run as part of the Farleigh King of the Castle races and the Vets des Nations weekend as well as specially selected other events.

    For the future, racers will be able to register for the series and get special series race shirts that are being designed and will be available later this year....
