Fuel line came today, and it started on the 2nd kick! I rode it around for approx 20sec, since I didn’t have a helmet on. Will try again tomorrow and I’ll post a video!

It feels very powerful for its size! Granted, I’ve only ridden a bike once before

Got it pretty much all buttoned up! The tank might need a little work before I put the decals on.

After looking at some photos, the other bike I rode was a Hi da 150crf. I never went past a quarter throttle ordered gear though when I rode it.

Still crazy to think…. That this used to be the inside of the cylinder… And it was my very first project. I’m pleased to say the least!

 

[MrMan]

It’s done!!!!

I’m very happy how it turned out

Next project? Not sure yet, but at least a 125cc next time. Sell or keep? Definitely sell it, I’m 6’2” so no way will I keep it . The proceeds will go toward my next project(s).

It’s kinda crazy the difference decals make to the overall look.

Here’s the list of new parts that I’ve put in it:

Piston rings
Carburetor
Piston Pin
Ignition Coil
Wiring Harness
CDI
Cylinder Base Gasket
Seat Cover
Fuel Line
Graphics
Clutch Cable
Hand grips
Air filter
Kill Switch
oil (duh)
Front Numberplate
Spark Plug.

I think that’s it, but there might’ve been something I missed. And all of those parts and some TLC got me from this:
