I cant wait for you to get rid of the pink and throw that front tire in the trash! Looks like a nice solid start, with good plastic. And you have a lot of the hard to find parts already. What silencer is that? Im looking forward to seeing more:beer

Nice Alexandros ! Some assembly required :)
Another fella is sending me a set of the handle bar clamp covers to replace the mold of the ones you loaned me a couple of years ago, when I get that project done I send you pictures thru e-mail.
Looking forward to your progress reports.

Very nice part collection! I spotted some rare stuff in there- e-brake cable, clutch cable guide, two toolboxes. I ended up using a Lakota toolbox on mine and its kinda ugly. What are the little chain guides for? Skidplate?

[alexandros]

made some painting yesterday


do you like the color I use?

[alexandros]

some bolt and the rear axle

nice. alexandros - you crank out some awesome builds! cant wait to see this one.

i'm really digging that silencer. looks similar to what jimmy white had on his bike from the photos...

[86T3]

Very nice. What did you plate the bolts and axle with? They turned out great.

[pantera1975]

Dont see to many 87 rebuild threads. Looks good

[alexandros]

Awesome bro!!

[alexandros]

durable axle and a calfab swingarm...

should i put them here on in my 86t3 runner?

[sportvette]

Nice! Use them on a bike! Are you doing an oem restore or aftermarket? If oem I would go oem all the way. If aftermarket, then aftermarket all the way.
