The Wasp. A new owner...

My youngest daughter, who is 20, has expressed her desire to get her bike Ls. Scares the crap out of me thinking of her on the road. So what do I do to stop her? "You get your Ls and i will give you the Wasp once it is up and running." Besides her at first saying .."Really" she has asked to help work on the bike. So the Wasp has a new owner. I now do not have to build this on a budget. So were can I get a 150cc big bore kit for a GS125 engine? How can I say no to her when I have been the one to encourage it. The owner of the Wasp is on the left in the photo. 

The Wasp. Tanked...

The Yamaha JT1 60 tank arrived today. Quick test fit. Some bashing and threatening it and it will fit. The inside will be cleaned. No were near as rusty as I thought it was going to be. Not yet decided on what colour it will be. This looks way better than I thought it would.  

The Wasp. Attack...

Parts are just falling off the bike. I have turned the engine over by hand. The valvles open and close and the piston goes up and down. All togther. This may be a good thing. Bit of a mock up. This tank will not be staying as I have a Yamaha JT1 tank coming for it. The solo seat will stay.  

Little Thump - Now "The Wasp"

Took the seat off. Found the seat was being held up with wasp nests. Well not really. They are big nests. So from now the bike shall be called "The Wasp".  

Little Thump - Is here.

Cam dropped the bike off at 7am this morning. He was on the road at 5:30am.Big thanks for doing that mate. I went to work and totally forgot I had this waiting at home for me. Some photos before I attack it. The body work will be gone.   Wasp power. 

Little Thump.

I just bought this little thumper. A 1982 Suzuki GS125. Clean up. A few WnRn touches and then sell it.
