Cool thanks Sonreir

thanks Sonreir, Was just curious where the stock battery cable is fixed.

Sorry to hijack the thread but was just wondering if you could help me out. Just curious where the earth from the battery gets bolted to? Got this bike as an unfinished project and just have it earthed to the frame at the moment. Cheers SD

Yeah good idea Sonreir I'll check it out next time I'm in the garage. Thinking that the LED's are rated at 12V.

Haha oh yeah that small detail... It's a Buell Cyclone 1998.

Hey guys, Have just got a weird issue I'm having with my dash lights. I swtched out the standard bulbs and installed some LED's now the problem I'm having is with my Indicator dash lights. They work when the engine is off but as soon as the bike is running they no longer light up. I'm...

Hey mate, You'll need to grab yourself a couple of diodes from any electronic store. Then solder them inline with the live indicator wire that leads to the bulb. Since there's only one bulb wire you'll need to either splice or use a connector to join both wires into the one. Hope that makes...

Looks great!. Love the seat, hand stitched leather?

Cheers mate. I know I love that smell too. Reminds me of child labour days and mowing the lawn every weekend.

Thanks Chambers. Hahah go ahead, that's why these forums are so cool.

Thanks mate have always loved scramblers, Yeah we made all of our own custom bits, like the seat and oil tank, batterbox and a few other things. We also chopped the rear fender to suit. You might find that custom parts off other yamahas may fit. But it's hard to tell when you're buying stuff...

Thanks mate.

Hey Mark, I just used one of those smaller Lead Sealed rechargeable batteries that they use in kids toys and alarm systems. Not the exact model but something similar http://dicksmith.com.au/product/S6402/sealed-battery-lead-acid-6v-4-0ah Am running all LED except for the headlight. Cheers Ben

Thanks very much. Will need to take some more shots have a lot of crappy camera phone shots. The battery is a little 6V under the seat.

Cheers Mark. Yes love riding this little thing around, or maybe it's just the smell of the 2-stroke that makes it so enjoyable :)

Happy New Year Guys, Here's a tiny little Yamaha RX125 that a mate and I finished. Neat little bike just for cruising around the city. I've also got a list of all the bits and pieces I used https://www.buildboard.app/showcase/rx125scrambler Cheers

Hey Big Rich, Thanks for your reply. Took your advice and started working backwards and ended up finding the problem. Looks like the owner had removed the indicator fuse and relocated it somewhere else. It was missing from the fuse box. And sure enough it was blown :-\ Amazing what a...

Hey Guys, I'm building I've just switched my bike over to use LEDs with indicators and taillight. All was working great until I started trying to trouble shoot an issue with the indicator light on the dash. As it was working on the left side but not when i clicked the right. I opened up...

Hey guys, Just some progress pics of the undercoat and alum base and the red over the top first 3 coats Cheers SD

Just started adding some graphic to the top of the tank. Still heaps to do.
