I figured I would just start up a new thread.

Sporty motor was sure purdy, but after a better inspection it was just that.....purdy. It was way over advertised to the original owner who built the bike years ago..so I passed.

So in the begining...this is how I found the poor girl,



A quick ride home..



After a much needed bath...



The teardown..



Stay tuned..))

I've seen that bike somewhere before. Do you know the history behind it?

And this bodywork is for sale.

Nice! It's going to be a fun build. Might just give me the inspiration I need to tear into my M2. Keep us posted and give me a call if you need any help.

Very nice rescue!! Keep the thread alive with you progress!! I keep looking at the "as found" photo.... It's so sad that such great bikes get so trashed...very nice find, can't wait to see the finished product!

Wow Chris! I never did care for those custom paint schemes, but with that demon blue frame it just works and pops out! It looks great just standing upright without the motor!!!
