Car: 1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Rep Power: 19     |  My Suzuki TM125 Restoration The bike used to belong to my dad and hes giving it to me after we finish restoring it. By we I mean hes helping with the hard parts but I plan on doing most of it myself. Here is a pic of what it will look like (Except the yellow parts will be black as you will see in the pics below this)  And a bit of dreaming   Heres our (my) bike:    Since these were taken I have: -Smoothed out and removed the forks (got rid of little rust pits) -Removed the stems and cleaned all the ball bearings (old grease eww) Ill take some new pics tomorrow. Stay tuned  |

Car: Land Rover Discovery, 1980 Yamaha XJ650 Rep Power: 91  | Cool little project you have there! That looks like it's going to be a fun little bike once it's all done. It seems motorcycles are quickly gaining popularity around here.
__________________ D-Fence: Kajun is just outside caressing his Discovery....touching it gently, you know......it is such a dirty bitch.....but he seems to love dirty girls in high heels who are taller then him and have "quite a few pounds" on their hips ^^ Yes we can!

Car: 1997 Yamaha Seca II, 1976 Honda CB550F Rep Power: 132 | Sweet, another bike restoration!  Have fun with that, that's gonna be a barrel of laughs once you finish it. I couldn't help noticing you're missing some parts though.

Car: 1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Rep Power: 19 | I might not have photographed all of it. It was all there before we disassembled it. I can't wait to get it done! One of the best parts about this bike is there isn't much in the way of electrics to deal with. Its a kick start with no lights at all. Not even a speedo |

Car: MY07 G11 WRX-TR WRB. Rep Power: 91 | Great bike to restore. They are very easy to ride, and the engine likes abuse.

 Here are some new pics:  My smooth (to the touch) Shock absorbers. I'm thinking about getting those silly accordion shock covers to keep sand out. Good idea?  Exhaust and chain (which is soaking in wd40. After sitting outside in the desert for over 15 years it needed some loosening up)  Shiny Renthal handlebars (from the late 70s)  Frame  Gastank Sorry for the long time between posts. I haven't got much done lately but I'll try to get some done tommorow. | |
