Don't say I didn't warn you

I got it cheap as it had been down a ditch, I don't like spending money and needed a bike to ride to a rally 150 miles away so I set-to and fixed it in 3 days using only stuff I had laying around in the shed/garden.
Bike features a CB250 rear lamp and a mini bates headlamp (which sucks), new seat made from the tail plastic from a CB250 rs widened with some tin plate and padded with a bit of sponge mounted on a cutdown rear subframe.

Repaired front mudguard that was smashed to bits with some aluminium plate:

And 'stitched' with wire:

Custom 'spacers' were added to take up the slack in the circlip that holds the exhaust on:

Secondary radiator feed blocked off with a 17mm socket and a bolt, bolt leaked like hell so I made a washer from an old bit of innertube. Oil cooler moved to higher position and secured in place with some old wire. New radiator mounts made from a strip of metal laying in the garden:

Back from the dead.
oooo nearly forgot, I've had this fairing laying about for a while, might well end up on it if I can be arsed to fit it. Think MadMax toe cutter and whatnot:
