Man that wheel looks great haha! So, there's a motorcycle junkyard close to me, and saw a 83 or 84 aero 125 if you need parts for that one you mentioned before.

Well two steps forward, one step back, managed an hour on it tonight, fitted most wiring and throttle/oil pump cables, oiled them all up first, then noticed my rear wheel isn't dead centre? It's nearly 10mm offset too far, so stripped it back down and hopefully modify it tomorrow so I can carry on the wkend

That bike looks so good. I'm assuming your gonna end up modifying the motor mount too line it up, Are you gonna stretch it too?

Cheers, I redone my mount dinner time today, brought it back in 9mm, should be right now? The stretch as such is just 20mm I still want the wheel to fit under all the original number ate holder, with the massive indicators, trying to keep it looking original apart from lower, and wide rear wheel :-)

I'm looking for a 50race pipe local cheap to modify and plan the mounting? The race pipes are normally a lot lighter, also going to pick up the 125 2 stroke honda later, but that be for my other melody :-) where are your videos? See loads on YouTube but mainly ruckas, or zoomers here in uk

Picked up the 125 Lead from my mate, didn realise they roll on alloys? Real retro, love it! Head and carb are missing, but should find a head, and going to run bigger carb anyway so I'm well chuffed as it was free :-)
