Dunstall Norton 1969 Drainpipe

In 1969 Paul Dunstall built the Drainpipe . The name came from it's unique design .
Ray Pickerell rode it . There are very few if any other copies of this bike . Our man Pit commissioned Ray Breingan to build an exact replica of the frame tank and seat . This is what evolved after one years work .

I note the Arces fork yokes are being used. What is the head angle.? If it's 27 degrees the bike will stand up as you back off. - Too much offset!

@acotrel1 Thanks for the the comment . You are up with the play . A lot has happened since I posted this video . Pit crashed and got run over at a race . He's OK but not up to racing for a while . Ray the frame builder not in good health for the last year how ever he is wanting to get back into it and yes that offset he altered on the next frame .Unfortunately the first frame won't allow for it . Wheel touches motor .

Who is the replica builder?

Is it Ray Breingan from New Zealand?

Does anyone have his E-Mail?
