Hey all, this is my first post about my first bike. I'm a university student, and am building the bike to get around on in Melbourne, so its going to be a low budget build. I've had a bit of experience building cars which I'm hoping will carry over to motorbikes.
So heres the bike as I bought it, $600 off eBay as a non runner. She fired up for the first time in 10 years with new spark plugs (it had a lawn mower plug in one cylinder ??? ), new fuses and a good clean of the carbs. The starter solenoid is rooted, but I'll just put up with kick starting in the mean time because I'm poor haha.
I'm still working out style options on photoshop, but this is my favourite so far
I've ordered a bunch of parts such as clip ons, bar end mirrors, pod filters etc, but I can only work on the bike when I go home on weekends so progress might be a little slow.
