Unless you have the parts laying around already and are handy with a welder etc it could end up costing quite abit.Its only a cg 125 aswell.Would be a fun project all the same.

There was a guy selling a gn250 on here that he had turned into a bobber, I'm not a fan but he did an amazing job.

Top work doubblebrown,
I take it you have seen the "Falcon" motorcycles on the web! Some good ideas there if you are looking for inspiration.
http://www.youtube.com/watch!v=D7E4ivPw63Y I really like "Angry Monkey" as well http://www.youtube.com/watch!v=ddIKCTmlDhE&feature=fvwrel

Would be really keen to see some picks when you are done! (and as you build if you are keen!)

What happened to them! Any one know!
I was thinking about building something myself. Very simple of course.
Anyone have any links they could share! Thanks.

Soda blasting can be a good way to deal with removing paint without upsetting aluminium casings etc.
For those sorts of projects sometimes a little DIY soda blasting machine can be good too. It will be puss for anything major but can be great for cleaning little bits and pieces. Plenty on the net for how to make one, I just use a converted siphon sand blaster.
