Taken a few months. Not quite done but nearly! Need to paint the new sidepanels I've bought to fill in the gaps.

Looks freaking awesome man, my buddy has a goose and he just binned it so it needs a lot of new pieces anyway, I'll show him a pic of yours, maybe give him some inspiration!

Nice work!

Sweet job on that goose....wish mine looked that good!! Anyone know of anywhere I can get spare headlight brackets for my goose?....stupid ally ones just snapped on a low-speed accident and they're proving a bastard to find!!
Help would be most appreciated!
Cheers,
Josh

£85!

I couldn't insure a scale model of a CG125 for £85!

Bastard.

Headlight brackets, tried eBay? There were a set in a shop there.

I need to get the bitch running right, I don't trust the carb that's on there, so I've got another I may experiment. Also going to do a compression test, and if it's not up to scratch, I think it's going to be bored to 380.

Hopefully get it running ok in time for Lydden on the 26th July.

Hi,

I currently have a non-running 350 Goose Crying or Very sad

Unfortunately it is either my generator or my ignitor box that is dead, if you have or know of any of these parts kicking about please let me know Wink

Any other parts considered too Exclamation

ben1974rsv@btinternet.com

You should check out Yahoo auctions in Japan as there are tonns of trick parts for the 350 Goose on there (also search for nk42a).

I must admit that I do like the black / white contrast Cool
