I built a small one for Proof of Concept to see if I can do it. It is actually working very lekker.
It works with Arduino. All in it cost me about R2.5K with most parts from Banggood. I am now ready to scale the design up to a bigger machine. I used this guy's design and Bill of materials...
Hi There Guys
I am at a point where I want to re-live my youth (I know its a mistake). I am looking for a Yamaha IT175/200/250/465/490. It doesn't have to be running just fairly complete. If you have one that is in your way or know of anyone wanting to sell one please ping me.

The bitch on that snotty mud was that it would rain and then clear for 5 minutes and then it would start all over again coming in at 45 degrees. This went on for hours.

We did a 4 day Tankwa trip up to Calvinia at the end of Oct last year. 3 bikes: On KLR650 (Me), a Transalp 700 and a Beemer GS 650. My mate with the Beemer made some short vids of the trip. Here is the play list...
Hey Guys
Just bought a previously unloved Honda CD200 to fix up as a cafe\brat\scrambler frankenstein. Anyone knows of a nest of CD200 spares? Looking for a long\bench seat to start with. Has anybody converted these from 6v to 12v?
