New 2 stroke project

This is where it gets expensive! Std restoration costs an arm and a leg.

 

yeah it does that's true . it may end up a light resto to spark interest in those that want an easy project ill see how it goes. I've still bandit to do as well.

 

well swing arm out and a clean up started . frame looks to be nice and straight after I've measured it up . going to strip engine next and check crank then replace all seals and a new piston to match bore after I hone it at work.

 

Looking good.

I preferred the conservatory to build the MTX

 

Mrs gt would not approve . really do need some heat in my workshop this time of year thats for sure .

 

My missus didn't exactly approve earlier. But a radiator..... It helped the build was a clean build. No muck or grease (other than what I put in the swinger bearings)

 

as a 16 year old I rebuilt my rgv race bike in the family kitchen when parents were away as gas had run out in the garage heater . they came home and I forgot I had engine cases in the oven still after heating them to drop in crank bearings . mother was not impressed

 

Hero

 

she was even more livid when she found out I'd had parts through the dish washer too.

 

I've never tried that one...
