So, I picked up a little bit of a gem back in August and while I had full intention of keeping my little 125 almost as original as possible I've had a bit of a change of heart. I wanted my first cafe project to be something a bit larger but after a few weeks of searching high and low for even the most minor of stock parts, my mind was made up. It's going cafe. I've decided to remove every part that is nonessential for making it go and stop while still being street legal in the great state of North Carolina. I also, so much wanted to keep it the original nasty turquoise green to stay a bit nostalgic but have since decided it needs a bit of a makeover. The bike had been sitting for the better part of the last 20 years but when I went to look at it, I kicked it twice and to my surprise the motor spun freely and with good compression. I immediately agreed to pay the current owner a grand total of $75 and loaded in my buddy's truck to take it back to the shop. When I got it there, I took the carburetor off cleaned it up, adjusted the points, replaced the plug and battery, kicked it twice and it sputtered in to a slow but strong running little piece. So without further ado, the Green Streak.
