R100 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Plans over the next 6 months include. New diff, such as a holden commy to drop the revs down on the motorway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Shit me, I'm highly anticipating this build. I love the look of these things, even the newer ones look cool. This one looks sweet on those wheels already, will look crazy once you carry out the mods you have planned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R100 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 meandid you sell it to some joker in lower hutt with a knackered trans? I built it then sold it to a guy in Auckland, it then ended up somewhere down in welly. It was then sold back to the guy i originally sold it too then i bought it back. I was told the trans had shit itself but was rebuilt prior to me buying it back. Did you see it in lower hutt ? I have no idea where its been since i sold it a few years back.

CaMpylobacter Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 yeah a guy down here told me he had it and offered it to me for a reasonable price with dead trans. (he bought it for $3500 off trademe in same state) was keen as then he disappeared due to his business going tits up and him owing lots of dough hah. haven't seen him since. sweet little suzuki, though. looks so staunch i reckon. sweet conversion. cool to know it's still around!
