Love it. I guess the chassis styling is up to the owner. The chassis  in the article looks a like 3 different bikes in one. I'd go for a strait up clubman. I hope prices follow soon.

I'm curious as to what kind of numbers it will produce on the dyno.  Very cool that Aniket stuck with it to the end, great looking bike.

Probably about 40-45 rwhp.
The heads/carbs/cams are all stock.

Pardon my ignorance and I apologise for the noob questions.

I see in Aniket's blog that he has used 'alloy barrels'. But, the cylinder heads are still cast iron?

The stock iron barrel Enfields are complete cast iron, right?

Stock cylinder heads on Bullets are aluminum alloy.
The stock cylinder barrels are cast iron. Hence, the iron barrel nickname.
The stock Bullet engine cases and engine covers are also aluminum alloy.
