    This is the ONLY pic I have for now... shows how much space I DON'T have left in my garage! You know the story though... there's ALWAYS room for one more!!  :biggrin: :biggrin:

    Not much to update on. Been toying with a few ideas and finally have decided on what I want this bike to look like upon completion. This bike is gonna be amazing.... think I will prob end up begging the owner to sell it to me! Parts on order from the USA and sourced some cool stuff locally...

    Honda lives on (XL 175 1976 Restore)

    Looking good. Some decent progress. When I get a bee in my bonnet on one of my projects, my wife & kids know to stay clear coz I'm like the Tazmanian Devil & shit gets done... fast!! Can't wait to see it all back together. These vintage singles are really unique and she will become one of your...

    Agreed. But hey... it's not my bike. On my R100T people always ask me why I didn't put knobbly tyres on for more of an 'aggressive' look. My answer to them 'Coz my idea of aggressive isn't exactly flying off my bike on the highway at 120km/h when I hit a wet patch'. I think these days with...

    Haha. I believe they're 'Fiestone Champion Deluxe' and sizes are 4.00/19 front and 4.00/18 rear. Same size as my R100 Beemer... so if they're going anywhere, it's onto MY bike!!  >:D Jokes aside... they look UBER COOL... are used on PLENTY high-end custom builds, but are apparently one of the...

    Hi guys. I purposely have NOT been logging onto Gumtree for the past 2 months. After doing 3 full bike builds back-to-back (whilst juggling family, work and my plans to move to the USA), I convinced myself I was tired and I needed a break! A while back, someone here in town saw a couple of my...

    Call me old-school...first resto project(klaar gelag)!?

    Weskus.. How's the electrical system on that thing? A lot of folks do a 12v conversion, but it's possible to have a decent result with the 6V system by doing a few small changes. I recently rebuilt a little Honda with 6V electrics and they work like a charm (and lights are bloody bright at...

    Cafes and Customs: Honda CB400N low riding hard tail brat!

    Good to see someone thinking outside of the box... keep it up  :thumleft: Here are a few different examples of the fuel pipe idea. Personally I like the look of the one in the 8th pic. https://www.lowbrowcustoms.com/page-view/tech_install_fuel_sight_gauge_on_gas_tank/ You will have to...

    R100RS Dances with Wolves...

    Good to see some pics of this bike up on the forum... Instead of little sneak-peaks on your iPhone ;) Your fiberglass work is top class. Look forward to seeing the end product and letting our airheads finally meet each other.

    What was I thinking!? Don't buy a bike you can't ride home!! (II) + 40% Edge 540

    Nice. Look forward to this one. I think if I ever redo my airhead  I will do a street scrambler type build too, but a practical type bike with mudguards and a luggage rack... not one without fenders and pod-filters out in the open. Good luck & post lots of pics for us okes who are project-less...

    Wiring your bike

    :imaposer: Took the words right outa my mouth!! My advice to newbies is the same I was given when I did my 1st build... study the wiring diagram UNTIL it sinks in & makes sense, buy a multimeter, decent crimper & learn to solder!  :thumleft:
