One of two projects im working on at the moment here in Australia.
"Ruby" is a 1980 yahama SR250 single
She was offered from a friend, who was unable to finish her due to uni commitments, so rather than leave her to live a slow life in the corner of a garage, I parted with a fist full of notes and stepped in to finish the build, I was quite impressed by the quality of workmanship already done, but there's a whole lot more to go...
In all honesty I didn't like the way she was going, so I decide to restyle, opting for a classic tank and sprung seat setup, with a low down riding position, to smooth out the harsh lines, and present a homage to vintage chopper styling.
For the next update, Ill start going into tank modification to overcome the factory backbone design.
aside from Ruby im also working on another project bike, a 1985 suzuki GSX250 called Daniella, which will be styled as a café racer.
