Awesome! That looks like fun! Slightly more work to do than mine though... seems a classic case of one-upmanship!

I might be a little slow (and new here) but what's the story behind the two bikes going into one?

andy c · Post by **andy c** » Sun Jun 22, 2008 4:46 pm

The story is cost. wanted a bike but couldn't afford one.
Bought the black one from an ad in the local paper minus engine and various other smaller parts.
Then found a doner bike written off cat b silver one at a breakers (hence the headstock cut off the frame in the picture).
I'm still looking for a few little bits and bobs. But have plenty of bits to sell on (hopefully).

the plan was to clean and polish everything before putting it back together but my enthusisam got the better of me yesterday (bet i regret that later)
So far it has cost me Â£800 and apart from the right hand side engine cover the other bits should cost about Â£50 at Honda dealer prices
