Hi guys,

I have been so bored and car parts are too expensive when you're 17 and a KP...

So, I wanted a small project that doesnt cost to much and is a bit of fun..

Went to some pikeys house today to look at some mini motos and he had one bike and a load of spares left..

He said give me £10 for the lot and take it away.

Here it is, I will be doing this over the next few weeks so watch this space if you are interested, if you're not then hay ho Razz

How it started off:

Starting to strip down:

Was hard to lift this huge block out by myself Razz

Plans are:

Full engine rebuild.
Race exhaust.
Air filter
Upjet carb
New Spark plug
Source some fairings.
Find a colour scheme/design.
Wheel refurb.
Paint chasis.
New pads and disks.

Will update regularly Very Happy

**update 22/07/2011**[u]

Made the most of the sun today and got a few bits cleaned and painted..

Also I have ordered a new pull start and flywheel Smile

Here is the engine, degreased and stripped.

Dirty old clutch bell Sad

Stripped...

Primed and painted:

Bike frame sanded down..

And primed:

Now my wheels ready for refurb Wink

**update 01/08/2011**

Painted frame:

Painted exhaust:

Repairing the fairings Smile

Fibre glassed behind the holes...

A lot of filler in the gaps Razz

And the finished product! (Not painted yet!)

And the engine is complete:

I re-assembled the mini moto to have a test run of the engine and it was running terrible...

Stripped the engine and found out one of the piston rings have snapped (Not damaged anything else luckily)

So waiting for the posty now to deliver my new ones and ready to run again!

Its super fast!

I miss mine Paid £340 for my Honda Repsol Racing replica. Was fast as f***, got clocked doing just under 60mph, which is seriously fast when you're only an inch off the floor!

Not sure yet, Have two engines though!!

Full engine rebuild.
Race exhaust.

Wheel refurb.
Paint chasis.

Thats all I can think of so far. I found out its the lucky 7 model which is slightly bigger and faster with a removable swing arm..

I fitted them to the front and rear, so they were like normal lights Rear ones were flashers tho, so used to do patterns Used to love flying about the streets on it Sold it tho because the engine was too powerful and used to rip the rear wheel off all the time. Shreaded the bolts on the rear sprocket Would have ended up killing myself

I think green with a gold flip. Would look cool if you could see the gold.

b******s. In your "had a bad idea" thread is the real photo and the colour of your car is nothing like that above. Crap camara or not. You have adjusted the colour that much you've turned a green tree red.
