    Oh and I “rebuilt” the shocks ages ago but they were shit could basically bottom them out just pushing on them, can buy new/upgraded springs etc for them but I then I saw a guy was selling a rolling hyabusa for cheapish so grabbed it, bought some all balls conversion bearings and slotted it on theres aftermarket clamps available a I should probably buy one as there’s not that much steering angle (have beaten the tank a bit for more) turns out it’s probably cheaper and easier to buy cbr forks as they use the standard bearing and may have more angle, meeh

    Shit 2 Years..., got enthused after nats and tried starting this old girl cleaned carbs and modded the starter motor (poor earth for the neutral brush so drilled and tapped to the alloy housing) fired into life and then had fuel oozing out from all the cruddy seals turns out they made a different sized fuel tap for like 2 yrs and they are nla, all the Chinese ones are different so drilled the rivets and bought New seals tapped and fitted screws Found a guy on trade me selling lots of Kiehin carb kits so asked and he was able to supply a kit for same price as all the USA/Europe ones without the freight! ( t.me name Nikau) also pulled the carbs apart and had them vapour blasted and re zinced

    So I promptly drove over to Hamilton and grabbed it before he had second thoughts needs suspension and re-reg (still got the old black plates) failed getting it through as a moped and then figured since it’s going into winter and I’d already got a yx140 motor from @Raizer I’ll get it going more than 40km/h and sort rego later

    So since I’ve had my cx500 for several years and yet to finish it I did the most logical/os thing and bought a 1980’s? 125xl with og black plates of Facebook last year and promptly got it running plan waaas to fix rusted wheel and re-reg, but got carried away chopping off the gritty seat and back end masked up so I can make a fibreglass seat base, then a mate asked if I’d like a cub of course I would

    It's so awesome that it needs six shock absorbers and six coil springs. It's got luxury covered too - climate control air conditioning, heated seats, heated electric mirrors, leather, wood, chrome, and a trip computer how many still work? and whats with the extra shocks and springs?
