Got a horrible looking cheap FT500 to play with,no major mods just a quick tidy up to make it look acceptable.
In stock 1980s "square box dig your eyes out with a pen look"
Angle grinder, paint, tread groover, welder, new shocks, rebuild forks and starter motor, drink beers etc
Came out much better.
Test ride! bike looks ok but handles and rides terribly, much safer as a cruiser just t go to the pub on than a proper hills riding machine, but still lots of fun.
