IT’S TAKEN METALWORKER TERRY HALL just five weeks from being presented with the chassis and a few rough ideas of what we wanted to come up with this stunning tank and bodywork for the Enigma 1050 project.
While Jim Lindsay was collecting the bike, he met one of Terry’s customers, Richard Harvey, who said “He’s not so much a metalworker as an alchemist.”
We agree. It’s a stunning piece of work. See how he did it here.
