Photo 7/9 of the top one .....was he worried that someone may try and steal his fence?????
-
Both owners need to be shown what RESTORED actually means before being put up against a wall and shot for "motorcycle rape"
-
That first one is a pissa :D. I'm still trying to work out which is 'before' and which is 'after'.... ???

Yep, I love a good old fashioned special but that top one something else. The whole concept of swapping engines is to hopefully improve the performance of the original donor bike. Somehow though, I doubt that an MX125 engine would out perform the original RM125 motor. The $1200 he supposedly spent on the MX125 would have turned the original motor into a ball tearer and left change for new plastic and a proper paint job....and he'd still be able to kick start it ::)
Compare that piece of shit to the sweet work that Yamaico does with even worse donor bikes and you'll understand the 'special' concept.

I'm guess'n the blue an yellow overspray pics are the new version :-\
Maybe the contents of the esky /bike stand had been consumed just prior to starting this abortion also,
Nothin a couple'a Ltrs of fuel and a match wouldnt fix though ;)

That is the most unique frame downtube I have ever seen. Truly inspired... :o or truly delusional... :-\ I can't quite make up my mind... :D
-
"Downtube of the Gods"?????
-
And a gutless rev box heavy piece of pus CB250 engine????
Still I confess to having constructed some "Specials" like the SL125 with the CB500/4 engine... (Well it used the same piston,, just four of them ;) and Yes I am building a mark2 version of it as the original sadly was lost in shed fire. ;)

How insulting to the Yamaha!

The second RM would be a perfectly reasonable old dunger if the seller hadn't added an extra 0 on the price...
