So after a bout if trades I have finally got the priject bike I have been loiking for. I desperately unlived 1993 Honda NS125R.
Its in a bad way and my goal is to restore it to new good condition
Onr of the first puzzles I have to face is the spraycan painted engine, us there some solvent that will strip it?
Also do any of you guy have any experience of theses engines, what to look out for. I will post pics as I progress.[img][/img]

Before going the solvent routes, you might want to consult specialists in media blasting or vapour blasting etc.

Then there is always the problem of maintaining the 'new' finish, I would be deferring to the experts for a start-to-finish system\plan, I would hate to fook it all up on a guess after going to all that effort, time and no doubt expense.

Be good to know how you decide to approach this project, before and after pics essential Thumbs Up .
