Hey Brent
Welcome to the forum. Nice to have you on board, we look forward to some photos of your Megelli.
Sounds like you are burning up the bitumen, enjoy the ride.

Hi Guys,

I live in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne and currently looking for a cheap project bike. I had an Across back in 01 but sold the bike and let my permit lapse before getting my license
Hoping to find something fun, and importantly cheap - damn mortgages

Hi Kiffsta,

Not overly fussed, just some kind of old roadbike probably, and given my budget, probably a non-runner
I did find an Across in need of work for $200, but not having a trailer prevented me from doing anything about it
Watching a couple of bikes on ebay at the moment - will see how they go

Justin

 

Nah, I missed out It was snapped up pretty quick from gumtree.
My old across was a great bike, so much fun

 

hey crispy welcome to the forum mate. good luck with finding  project.

 

My name is Dean and I ride a cbr250r. I have had it for a couple of years and love getting on it and cruising. I currently have it in pieces to replace some bearings, polish some of the alloy, remake the exhaust and paint the fairings. Make the old girl feel good again.
My other love is rotaries and up until this week I had 3 rx7's. 2 were sold on Tuesday and the last one is now reluctantly for sale. But I will get another when the time is right.
I joined the forum because of kiffsta. I bought some items from him off eBay and he suggested I signed up. I used to frequent the cbr250 forum but when it changed over I haven't been back much.
I look forward to having my bike finished and back out on the blacktop and meeting some new people from this forum.
Cheers
Dean

Hi all, Sorry for the delay but here is the picture of my Little yellow baby.

Hey Dean
With a Honda CBR250R you simply can't go wrong. Would like to see some photos of your restoration, the tank was a good one. Anyhow, welcome to the forum and hope to catch you on a ride sometime soon.
                                                                            Cheers        Phil

 

Hey Speed lover, sweet looking bike. Looks good in yellow.
                                                                              Phil

 

Good Day All, I'm a new to this group.
My current rides are a 2004 Husqvarna SM450R, a 2005 Honda CBR1000RR and a project bike which is a 1983 Suzuki RG250. I picked up the frame in Pomona and a whole lot of spares from Phil early in January.
Thanks Slender for your help in getting started.
Regards
Roy

 

Hi Roy
Good to hear from you and welcome to the forum. Haven't forgotten the lock set, get that sorted soon.
How is the progress with the RG, would be great to see some photos if you get a chance.
Again, welcome                                                  Phil

 

Hey Roy welcome.
Glad to see you worked it all out. Thats quite the collection of bikes you have. :Thumbs_up:

 

Hi Phil & Slender
I have stripped the RG250 down to a rolling frame and made a list of what is missing or needs replacing so far. I havn't opened the motor to see what needs to done but have noticed the magneto is missing (ouch  ). Once I have worked out my strategy I will post it as a project. I have attached two photos of the RG250 and will put some photos of the other two bikes under "so what do you ride"

Cheers
Roy

 

Still looking for my project, but that $200 Across now seems to be on ebay for $500
