Cheers guys, it was a great project to do!
Well, it’s ‘interesting’ to ride, a bit like riding a ladder with wheels and a peaky two stroke engine. Smells glorious!
It’s all done with cans, Halfords own brand! (You’d find it difficult to tell though!)
Absolutely brilliant post, love your work!
Mmmmmm I always stay behind 2strokes for a bit on the bike and open the window as they ride past when in the car - can’t beat that smell!
(thinking about my old Aprilia RS125 now!!:crying: )
great post, really enjoyed reading it and great job. i loved these bikes, but i had a suzuki GT250 when i was 17 back in the day. what a blast, i used to thrash around on it with an open faced helmet on, jeans and a t-shirt. lol.
Superb post. Fantastic photos. Thanks for sharing. This has made my day too. Well done.
Great post, I’ve got an airfix model of one of these sat on a shelf somewhere
wow great post! massive transformation, she looks stunning, thanks for sharing
I did my bike with cans too. Looks great but the paint is really soft and scratches easily.
:(…
brilliant story and I love those wheels
Wow what a beautiful bike, it took me back to Brands Hatch 1980 odd, and a mate racing one. Iit had been modified by Stan Stephens, and if you were lucky would get 20mpg. Mind you they were pretty amazing miles…
God I feel old!
Stunning, simply stunning!!
Cheers guys!
Well times are tight so it looks like I’ll have to sell her 
Only if I had a garage!!
