I've been building this over the winter, now decided I'm more of a car man than a bike man so am selling it. It started life as a 1997 Honda Rebel 125 with 8,700 miles on the clock and one previous owner (very unusual for a 125!) I used it last summer to commute 35 miles a day and it didn't miss a beat, and averaged 90mpg. I want £1,500 for it with many many new parts and 1 years MOT. Swap for any old or interesting car, prefer pre 73 but open to suggestion. Better value than that chinese curse word thats about and easier to get bits for and far longer lasting! This is how it started, and underneath is how it is now...       |

Its on the other side. No pics of that side yet cos I'm in the process of making a stainless steel battery box. If its still light when i get in tomorrow night I'll take some.
Actually i think I've got an old pic of the other side before it was painted. I'll dig it out.

No need to be sarcy Sorry, couldn't resist it. ;D Here's a couple of pics of its evolution so you can see how it got from where it was to where it is now. This was its first incarnation, standard body just a few satin black cans.      |
