(more) Inspiration part three (or is it four)

Just love this bike's profile.

Neat dash

Nice seat (I'd like a thumper just to have a Supertrap again)

Where I want to go with my seat, rear light and mudguard.

Just cool

A spare half day!

Finally, I found some time to spend in the garage. Jobs tackled (all partially)

• Cut down the original seat pan (I also made an alloy flat pan, but dont like it.)
• Fit the RM125 Rear wheel.
• Cut the seat subframe down.
• Cut the steel rear mudguard.
• Cut the outline shape for the front mudguard.
• Bend and shape some steel tube to judge if I'll use flat drag style or the original bars.

 I've trimmed 25mm of each side and 65mm from the length (at the front). I'm trying to retain the original seat hinge fittings, but they're ugly, and restricting the amount I can narrow the seat by. I think my best option will be to move the hinges to inside the frame rails.

The seat subframe "loop" will be welded back, which will close the current gap between the mudguard and seat.

Steel trailer muguard, £15.00 from Banbury trailers, delivered the next day, and almost ideal. It's specified for a 13" trailer wheel, and ideally a mudguard for a 15" wheel would be better, but, the width rises from an almost perfect 175mm to 200mm.

Two thirds of the mudguard are used here. Still needs some trimming at the bottom. I quite fancy drilling some holes in the lower section.

The remaining third of the trailer part is being used to fashion a small front mudguard. Still a bit wide, and I've still to find out what I legally need, but I want it as small as possible. Simply fitted to under side of the lower yolk, I'll use an alloy fender brace similar to the photo below. Again, I can feel some holes coming on!

I think I'll stick with flat drag style bars (not as fitted though, as I bent these by hand, wall way to thin)

Bit of welding, single light and number plate wount, lick of paint and it'sdone - If only.
