Took the bike into Jody last weekend for a bit of work! Got some struts made up, cut up the exhaust and also a new fender. Here's a small pic. Will post up some more when its painted!

Here's the bike now! Thanks to Jody (HKR!) the rebel is now hardtail, has a nice flush fender and a beaut sounding exhaust!

Heat wrapped the exhaust today and touched up some stuff with some paint. Looks and sounds the part now!


Ride tomo so ill take some more pics there!

Havnt done anything to the bike for a few weeks and its been shouting out for more! Today i decided that the bike comes first and work comes second. I played around with the bars and tried a few different positions and found this one to be the best. I found a half empty can and cut loose on the speedo, tank and rear fender. The tape stripes ben put on worked well when i pulled it off, it left a sweet gloss black shape on each side. Ive been looking at some forums and had a few ideas, so i gave the engine cooling fins a scratch with some sand paper and it turned out mint! I also gave the front fender a quick once over to keep the neighbourhood cop happy.

Now i need front indicators and a propper seat....
