    Another Winter Project

    This years project is rebuilding a Honda Trx. I’ve done a couple now and have enough parts to do this last one, which I said two of them ago.

    Anyway got all the bits back from being galvanised, so a few nights in the shed coming up

    Good shit Ross. I'm thinking of buying a shitter and rebuilding it as a project too. Might need to pick your brains at some point.

    All welding is done before being dipped.

    We had a green one on the farm, great bikes. I had a fox terrier that rode on the seat with me & shotgun, we clocked up heaps of kms around the district cleaning up hares & rabbits. Never let me down.

    Cool, they are kind of like ct90. But fairly rare, probably more so in nz. Only made from 73-75.

    Been doing a bit more. Most of it clean up work. But some progress on putting the jigsaw back together.
