restoration project???

hey anyone know where the best place to look for a decent restoration project is?

 

What sort of bike are you after?
Normally ebay is the best

 

looking for anything 125cc had a look on ebay just wondering if there anywhere else to look?

 

gumtree or preloved

You thinking 2 stroke or 4?

 

4 but willing to take anything on atm

 

Just be careful with 125's as they have a low value and its very easy to spend more fixing them, than they are actually worth.

 

was thinkin that but aint even passed my CBT yet so dont want to start anythin too big

 

Yea just watch the costs as they add up quick. Best bet is a bike that is mechanically sound and just needs some work on the cosmetics.

Should save you some money that way.

 

my brother bought an rs125 couple of months ago stripped the fairings off it and then sourced an engine which we've had running but not been dropped in yet. he hasnt touched it for weeks so i think he might be losing interest! i will have a word when i see him but i reckon £700 would own it

 

will have source some cash 1st

 

Check out copart.co.uk its an auction site for cars and bikes, plenty of bikes on there go for pennies

 

Following in his dads footsteps haha, already talking about "fixing" bikes, I don't think Benny was ever happier than when he had bike parts hanging off him and covered in oil haha

 

My bro had a RDLC 125 mk 3 he never got around to doing, I'll ask him whet he's doing with it.

 

You want a 2 stroke. Look for a Honda NSR sweet little bike and goes like stink

A 125's not a bad start as a project, fix it, use it and when you pass your test squeeze a bigger engine in and abuse it.

 

Gumtree is half decent as is Preloved!

 

Been lookin on preloved seems to be a large selection to choose from

 

What is your budget?

The force is strong in this one.....

 

Fuck all atm LOL but prob lookin at no more than a couple of hundred tho
