GN125E The ugly runt. It's not what it is but what it will become!

Hi everyone.. as promised (in the newguy portion) the build pics to my recent GN125E purchase. Here she is as it was delivered to me. 330 dollars (CDN). It runs? apparently but I didnt get it started due to no battery at the time and the carb float bowl looked like overcooked stew.

They actually make pretty good farm bikes actually. The engines are bulletproof. They have cast alloy wheels now so no spokes to rust. We fit off road tyres, lift the front guard about 2 ", change the bars, change the gearing and fit a few other mudguards etc. They are good for the cow farmers. The low seat is good cause in the mud you can put your feet flat on the ground. Really good for people with short wheelbase's.

Turn it into a mini gp racer style cafe from the 70s... think Barry Sheene.

Parts! Some from NZ even!

All new drum brakes (drum!?!) Fork seals, wheel bearings, misc bolts and bits. Turn signals (things need to be legal round here or else..) Brake and clutch levers (not available in Canada anymore) Fuelcock rebuild parts and nicer (newer anyways) shocks.
