Helix handlebar shizzle

fabricating a custom handlebar for the Helix. came from a Yamaha SR500. Narrowed the middle and gave it serious pullback, probably 400mm.

It's a bit crowded in the workshop...


Michael's 1980 RV90 rebuild





Me and Michael are putting together his Suzuki RV90. Bought it about three months ago with a 'sleeping' registration; it hasn't been on the road for about 20 years. After firing it up we parted it for a clean up and paint. Eventually we will probably swap the engine for a 4 stroke 140cc.

parts for winter project Honda Helix



I'm saving up new parts for winter. Time to swap the original Helix front wheel for a 12 inch spoke wheel from a PitsterPro bike with a 120/70-12 tyre . Plus a Japan import adapter for a custom handlebar. The Helix stainless exhaust and the fatty swap 'n stretch for the Elite is also still on the agenda. The list is long, but slowly will get there...
