Here's some pix so far from my latest bike. Sorry I don't have the greatest photo skills. That's how I bought it. I rode it home and decided it needed a clean and tidy up then the fun started.... Some progress... Master rebuilt. And all bled up. The other pix won't upload so these are not the best Front wheels, discs, caliper a rebuilt and shocks rebuilt. Front guard done. Now front is done time to start rear. Inside the motor was clean as! New gaskets and fliter fitted as well. Covers freshened up and Honda logo made more prominent. Rear calliper rebuilt and wheel refitted. Swing arm cleaned and all put back together. Slowly coming together. Seat recovered and now fitted. Back end on and exhaust fitted. LED Tail lights and new lock fitted. Rear seat done. Rear guard tidied up and blinkers re-mounted higher. Still heaps more pix that won't upload and heaps to finish like paint the tank and so on but I'll try and keep the pix coming. Heaps more if forgotten too but yeah. Should turn out one of my best. Thanks for looking.

Hey Paul Thanks for the photo's as for the posting of jobs completed, one question only: What did you get up to after lunch. Your bike looks awesome, kinda like the colour scheme also. Great job mate
Lol. Iv dead set worked on it solid for a week! Quiet week at work so lucky I guess. Plus I want to ride it. Shame I'm going to put it up for sale before I get a chance to ride it. I just love the mechanical part of bikes. I love working and found these therapeutic and a good time out from the starlet brain damage I get from starlet owners...
Haha. Thanks guys. I'll post better pix soon Pro. In the for sale section tho. Gotta move on to my next one. Cheers for the kind words
that is beautiful !!!! , my cbr is a redbull cbr , but black looks so good ill have to message you and find out where you got some of your parts
Hi bud. All parts and spares are from Xcite bikes. xcitebikes.com.au Omar is the owners name and has helped me heaps over the last few builds. I really like how he is constantly looking at products to help the bike community with quality and finish in mind rather than price. Most of his parts are genuine too! Iv found his prices to be cheaper than Honda in most cases and has stock of what I needed. Super fast with shipping too. Check out his site. Can't thank him enough. http://2fiftycc.com/index.php?forums/xcite-motorcycle-parts-and-accessories.115/
Thanks guys. All the compliments are making my head swell. Lol Pretty much finished today. Just buying new head light bulbs tomorrow so the new owner can see perfect in the dark because typically someone had used 1 normal car bulb in the bike. Just gonna do both. Now to try find some..... Stupid rare h4r bulbs...
