Have you seen this? Great looking bike. I would prefer a 250 myself.

Here in Japan bikes over 250cc have a compulsory vehicule inspection and more tax etc etc. 125's and 250's are heavy enough for me at my age and with my current handicap! I've been removing oxidation from so many little nuts, bolts and washers. I was trying to prove a friend of mine wrong who kept saying you cant buy cheap dirt bikes any more and this came up not far from me at all, but 'missed' that there was no paperwork, doh!

Working on getting a frame and title to put the parts back on to.

It was supposed to be a super budget woods bike. So far I have invested in a couple small tins of paint, torch gas and will need a kickshaft oil seal, plug, an oil filter, air filter, set of engine mounts (they are made of the lightest aluminium I have ever seen outside of kitchen foil!) it really needs spokes but I will get by for now and it will need tires too

It's funky being a single with twin carbs and twin exhaust ports!
