    125cc Dream bike build *Budget*

    Great thread! When I lived in Los Angeles in the early '90s my GSXR 750 was stolen. Before I got my next road bike, I picked up a KLR250 that needed a rebuild. I put street tires on it, fabbed up some rearset pegs, lowered the front end and ripped that thing through the canyons like a madman...

    things never go as fast as you'd like. Progress was made today but not quite as much as I'd hoped. It's the details that slow me down. I started the day cleaning up under the front of the frame to prep for some paint. I got that done but I decided to soak the area with the phosphoric acid...

    All of the things I ordered came in since my last post. The skid plate came in as just a big piece of steel! No packaging whatsoever! I cracked up! Unlikely that thing is going to get damaged in shipping - it's going to be doing the damaging!! The SAVVY transfer case cable shifter also...

    OBD II code reader / app

    I ordered that one listed above - plugged it into my Dodge Dakota, ran through the bluetooth connection steps and was able to read the data on my truck with my iphone. The app I downloaded is called 'Car Scanner'. It had good reviews in the app store.

    BIG day today. The body is now reconnected to the frame. It's a turning point in my refresh / build. Now I'm in re-assembly mode. What that means is the rust has been dealt with to a certain point - I'll use the 3M cavity spray on the inside of the frame rails but I won't do that until I...

    Topic of Discussion The Mahindra Roxor thread

    I found the Jalopnik video comparison of the Mahindra vs Willys to be rather humorous. Specifically the fact that they wore helmets in the Mahindra which had a full cage and no helmet in the Willys with only a bar. Honestly, If I wasn't building my TJ and I wanted a leaf sprung rig, I'd look...

    Last weekend I was able to finish up dealing with the rust on the front driver side spring perch and shock mount. Coated it with the Eastwood rust encapsulator and put several coats of primer followed by a couple coats of enamel. Lots of overspray but I have a feeling I'm going to end up...

    Amazing how slow the progress is since I went off vacation... Thankfully, I have made some progress and may be re-attaching the body to the frame with all of the body mounts this weekend. The big issue has been the rust on the rear cross-member. Last post I had completed a single coat of...

    Best I can do Jeremy is to ask the shop that is building the axles to make the measurement. you want the length of the shaft from the threaded end to the base of the splines?

    Progress is slow but it's moving forward. Since my last post, @CONJOB spotted a V-8 Grand Cherokee in the local pick and pull and I met him over there to pull the drag link and tie rod from that rig. A simple upgrade and super cheap! I got the whole thing with tie rod ends for $12! I ordered...

    That's the problem with today, not enough talking. I am certain that if people just got together and had an open-minded chat there would be a heck of a lot less devisiveness in this country.
