      Man that looks good, are you planning to paint it the same as the tank? What rear sets are those?

            The tank is beat up bad. The color of the tank is kinda neat though. It looked purple when i first bought the bike but now is a deep blue for some reason. I will be modifying the tank for my knees and bars. Then painting the entire bike this winter. The rear sets are motobits. They have more applications then what is just on their site. I am very happy with them. I spent too much for them but whatever.

            Now i can ride and slowly finish the million loose ends and the fit and finsh issues that i feel the bike has.

              Cool, thanks for that. They actually appear a little cheaper than the Raask equivalents and the reports on the Raask ones indicate average build quality. Not enough to complain but enough that they become expensive for what they are.

              The Motobits look a little better from the photos.

              You'll have to post up once you get her neatened and finished, should look awesome!

                Hi Pete,

                I've been in a funk lately because both my bikes are not roadworthy. A better mechanic than I could probably have them both up and running in short order, but it seems every time I set out to put the 200 back together, I just can't seem to get it right. If I had the funds I'd buy a new bike but it's just not happening now.

                    Flak - I had some Motobits on my Honda CL175. They were a little pricy, but I loved them. Aside from the brake linkage needing a little modification (which I knew beforehand), they bolted right on and worked flawlessly.

                      Just picked this up the other day. Needs some work, but it was cheap. For those that are concerned, it will be mostly a restoration.



                      Oh, and sorry for the crappy cell phone pic in a dark garage.........

                        Got my little 250 last winter and took some time with it.





                        And my modified 500.

                          Awesome Rich! Glad to see you got her

                          Just a restoration hey? Nothing out of the ordinary planned? Mind you that paintwork looks in decent shape in that pic and it's all stock...
