At first I thought about giving it a racer look, but soon decided to do a complete nut & bolt restoration job, so here goes !!

http://imageshack.us/a/img845/8242/8dfy.jpg tail is from a GP Pitbike, but ive since ditched that in favour of putting it back to standard as all the parts were with it and in good shape. This bike has stood for 13 years !! so first job was to see if it would run.

after removing the floatbowls I was greeted by this !!  http://imageshack.us/a/img39/1709/4gpk.JPG don't know why it wont show this picture    http://imageshack.us/a/img607/8702/j46b.jpg

http://imageshack.us/a/img839/1726/jbr6.jpg exhaust system is completely rotten & engine casings are badly corroded, oh and both fork seals were shot as well

http://imageshack.us/a/img585/1034/voes.jpg after a few weeks the rebuild began, all nuts/bolts & brackets were given the electroplating treatment as well.

I think that would look quite nice.
