Started with boxes and mikcrates of grungy parts. BUT, two previous owner's bought pipes, complete tank, sidecovers, for ears and headlight bucket from Honda. All NOS badges, trim, wiring harnesses, cables from Honda, 35 years ago. Even the front brake hoses were there, in the Honda packages. The only repro part from Yamiya is the airbox. I powdercoated the frame and built it from there. I did buy “new” rims that are not correct, but recently picked up. Decent front one. If I find a rear, I may have them re chromed and do them again....... 90% is the original part refurbished. The front fender is only slash cut at the rear, and shoes some rust on the underside. I dismantled the tach and speedo, polished the lenses and put them back. Not perfect, but original. The engine had excellent compression and leakdown, so I did the top end, just cleaned, lapped, and did all the gaskets. Even kept the original seat pan. Picked away at it for four years...... still have to actually fire it up.
