    hi guys the story of this bike is a bit funny ! This bike was imported to Cambodia by a Russian . The bike started to run bad 2 years ago . The owner brought it to a local Khmer shop and they thought it was an electrical problem so they bastardized the wire harness. The bike sat there for 6 months then the owner took it to another Khmer and they fucked it even more and the rats took care of the rest of the wire harness. I pick it up for 450$ took the heads off almost all valves were leaking quiet a lot . Now I'm rebuilding it , paint and ditching all plastics. This bike will be naked , single seater with a super low seat and I will move the shifter and brake forward . Kind of a sport bike chopper with racing slicks . I have a special bike collection all customs .

    Awesome project!

    I just gotta ask: Do you do this kind of work and other mechanical stuff for a living or is this more or a hobby to you?

    Anyhow, keep up the great work, man!
