Very Nice collection 8)
I did my 1230 popup well before the the days of internet, had to learn as i went. Knowledge learnt then now often helps others (on the internet, lol)

That frame looks a bit like a Martec ?, swingarm looks like it was done a bit later ?, just guessing, tasty special though.

Between us we're hyjacking your own thread :lol:

Here's my EFE

And my 1230 Kat back in around 1992, it'll be resurected soon.....i hope :)

What's the circles in the sides of the tank. Looks like someone has had a hole cutter on there. :confused

Keep up the good work. :thumbup:
