Sr500 build

Yesterday we managed to do some work on the SR500. Michiel started with soldering a new wiring loom. From our other projects we learned that a heavily simplified loom is the key for a clean and good workin bike.

We also started with some stuff that involved the grinder.. :-)
We did some good alteration to the frame and things are startin to look nice already.

the Sr500 at last...

So we finally did it... We picked up the Sr500 that we bought some time ago.. it was waiting for us all this time in the shed at my mums place.
We started rippin off all the cables and junk and very quickly things already began to look good.

Grinding away all the little mounts and other worthless peaces of the frame resulted in some really nice pictures.
Anyway, were lookin forward on building this thing. We already had some parts laying around so we couldnt resist checkin out how'd they look on the bike.

Our intention is to build somekind off scramber but we'll see how things turn out.

love those little bikes

Found a very nice page with some nice little custom SR500s just like our freshly bought bike. You can really see the potential of this little one.
