The rear wheel


The rear wheel spokes were so badly rusted that i had to cut them off  and that means that i would have to replace the spokes and build the rear wheel all over again. i also had the rear hub sand blasted as it had a bit of corrosion on the surface and the paint work looked bad so off it went to get all the old paint off , the rear swing arm also needed attention so i had sanded it down by hand after grinding off the passenger pegs . painted it black and greased the internals and stuck it back on the frame it looks just soooo sweet. The tank is from an AX100 and had a seriously thick coat of paint on it so it also needed to be sanded. stilll not complete yet. lots of hard work but very enjoyable,
