Hi everyone being new to the site I though it was only right that I introduce myself. I thought I would upload some pics of my current project and give you some info.
The frame is a 73 Honda CB200, i got the whole bike for £50 but with so many bits missing or beyond repair I decided to build a "special". I have always wanted a bigger 2 stroke after owning 3 Aprilia RS125s when I was a teenager, so after searching for a few months I found a MK1 RG250 engine for £60 with a recent top end rebuild. So with the basic layout sorted I started shopping around for so many other bits that I think will either work or look great.
KLE500 wheels respoked to 17"
KLE500 rear brakes
CB400 94 rear shocks
CB200 swingarm extended 3" (still needs a loop and strengthing)
Aprilia RS125 front brakes inc master cylinder and lever
Derbi GPR 125 USD forks yokes and clipons (these may change to RS125 ones if I can find some cheap enough)
General brackets and metal work I have done with my limited space and machinery but it does me.
I am still on the lookout for loads of bits in the usual places and I have also placed a "wanted" ad in that section. If you can help with any of the bits thanks in advance. I hope to upload more pics as the build progresses and give any updates
Cheers Dan
