Right after seeing my mate yesterday his dads having a clearout of his garden scrapping 3 cars and a moped.

Now the named Ped' is a 2002 Honda SFX and done less than 10k.

The reason it is a "Little" bit broked is that it was left for a few hours at a music festival and was set upon by a few pissed little scrotes and my mate never had money for new panels.

So it was left outside for about 3 or 4 years but run every other month or so

So after a little while feeling sorry for the ped being left up against the scrap car thats going i couldnt help resist , So i said to my mate ill have it.

Gave him a crate of beer and took ownership of this 137mph Beast
Has a selection of Powerbands Even a Half Luminous Green And Luminous Pink 1 Shocked WOWZORS


So far after a quick check over its going to need a new fairing set which iv already got lined up And a new exhaust

But other than that its mainly little things like new Shoes,Indicators,Stickers,Bulbs.

Now here she is Mr. Green

Kicked the shit out of it basically, jumping on it , kicking it. Why ? Confused

The mind boggles.


Now not the most exciting of updates but iv made the plate and ordered the battery Thumbs Up

Putting the letters on the plate before the reflective backing

We use wet reflectives though so unless you got the letter perfect first time it would take years and lots of reflectives to make 1 plate Laughing

Anybody got any link to a place which sells 90x90x10 tyres CHEAP lol

ARGH my ears....... I had to ride the bike a couple of miles to my brother in-laws after trying to bodge the exhaust up to no avail in the way that it crumbled in my hand.

so its exhaust was about 8 inches long.

Now on the hunt for an exhaust but trying to keep it going as cheaply as possible atm.

I think they just find me Laughing

Right not a Huge update but iv managed to accumulate some spares got 4 Baby brembo's for the aerox gave them a good clean and go them on the bike And we have brakes Very Happy

Now buying a battery for it but i have a small problem. The kickstart just spins round and round and round the teeth on the crank are shot so having a search for a new one.

The SFX is dying for a new exhaust but i cant condone spending £60 on a new 1.

Pics will be uploaded thursday.
