May 12, 201115 yr Almost done its taken ages due to things out of my control, just waiting for a rear silencer to finish it, dont know whether to keep it or sell it would be a shame to get it dirty after all the work thats been done.
May 12, 201115 yr Well done, nice bit of stuff! I remember seeing the 1st pics some time ago, Might motivate me to finish my project! Don't forget to fit the spark plug cap before attempting to kick it up - haha!
May 12, 201115 yr Great rebuild well done. Keep it, ride it, enjoy it, should you sell the next owner probably would ride the bike. Once they are sorted a stripdown/tidy up is never so bad. ? What make are the fork legs & front hub? methinks not Yam. Edited May 12, 201115 yr by TrialsRfun

May 12, 201115 yr Author Yeh you got me the front forks are Marzzochi had them lying around, and had heard about the problems with mono front hubs shattering and didnt want to pay for re-chroming of the genuine forks, anyway they are of a similar era as the rest of the bike and I think they look ok.
May 15, 201115 yr Very nice indead .If you sell it (unthinkable) the buyer is going to get the benefit of all your hard work......and still get it dirty. That leaves you with only one option, take some photo's......go and enjoy the fruits of your labour.....then have a few well earned beers .In the words of Peckham's most famous son (Del-boy)....."you know it makes sence Rodney!"

That's lovely.....You can put me at the front of the queue if you did sell!
May 17, 201115 yr "That's lovely.....You can put me at the front of the queue if you did sell!" A very similar one has just gone on evilbay, opening offer????
May 17, 201115 yr I suppose you can't blame him for trying. You never know, someone may be willing to pay it.
May 18, 201115 yr Author you would have thought he would have thrown in a pair of decent shocks and a kick start rubber for that price
