majesty320 Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 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.

bigplonker Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Looks a beauty. I'd keep it and ride it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shedco Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsrfun Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) 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.

majesty320 Posted May 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 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.

ducman Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Mark, keep the bike. It is very,very nice. Chrs:Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bashplate Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 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!"
