So ... Last summer whilst on a trip in France ... My mate who owns a dealership text me some pics of a trade T100 ... He knew I fancied a project bike and I thought it looked fairly ok for the money ... I asked him to pop it through an mot .. It passed ... sent him money and said I would collect when I was back home .
Off I went to collect with trailer and as I suspected it needed some loving ... I think it's been a daily rider, in all weathers ( due to the rust on most of the chrome ) ... Anyway I popped it in the garage .. And that's where it's stayed, whilst I played with other toys ..
Now SWMBO ... Asked my plans with it ... I said not sure yet ... She said can we build it for her
Yesterday I thought I'd better make a start... Amazing what you find when stripping down ..
O and by the way ... This is my first bike project...I've done cars, houses, gardens but never a bike !!! Got to keep my OCD in check or the budget will go out the window
