Hi guys, well yes I'm new here, ..... A good guy in the forums advised me to start posting and talking about my project and see what sort of feedback I get.
Long story cut short to get things started.
Have had only a few bikes over the years , nothing too scary or fast but plenty of fun, AC50, A100, R5350 (yep an R5) ,GT250X7 and now I am back to my roots riding an AC50 for fun and have started rebuilding 2 mid 80's RG50 Gamma's.
Plan is to run one mostly stock RG50 and the other will be sort of a fast street tune - what ever that is please educate me........ I do have a recipe I am using as a guide but welcome all views and experience.
I will start a blog about the builds once the system allows me to.
Priority right now is to get 2 frames and swingarms blasted and swell painted - so I seek your learned opinions and facts about what you all think is the best approach. I am not adverse to doing it right first time and spending a little bit more.
Have 2 good engines and enough parts to get 2 full rolling bikes and a fair bit of tatty plastic and 2 average tanks.
Pipes I am ordering from Graham Coker in South Africa............. he has some nice gear and it seems the best and most economical approach to be honest.
Every nut bolt washer bushing suspension links .....etc etc has been ultrasonic cleaned and sorted into a pile of good and average condition parts. Thinking of replating a lot of it? how to go about such - have googled a lot of this and its quite diy-able
Plenty more to come, please feel free to fire all your thoughts flames poopoos and help, I won't take it too seriously unless its helpful
cheers
Rich
