Re: 1990 Honda DJ1-RR project

UPDATE:- The DJ1 has been living in Paulpauly's garage, and it will be getting a well tuned AF05E motor that he had spare thrown in to get some more go from the old girl. Im not sure on the exact specs (maybe he can put them up?!) but hopefully it should be going and going well soon!

Re: 1990 Honda DJ1-RR project

Unsure what to do with this scoot... definitely lacking enthusiasm to finish. Its sat in my shed for over 6 months. Possibly considering getting rid of it.

Re: ****Official Non-Honda Picture Post****

This is a pic of my other toy small bike, a 1980 Yamaha V50. All it really needs is a tune and new seat (duct tape over the seat is kinda not cool lol) http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e3/Ben_Lappage/10888964_1084489184901290_2210206210619365624_n_zpsc1029069.jpg http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e...

Re: Scooters for Daily drivers

Get a Honda grom. My buddy has a new modded grom. I let him ride my dio, and he didn't want to switch back. The grom isn't much fun to ride, suprisingly. What is a Honda Grom? lol feel like a noob haha I have kids. My scooter is just a toy. One day I would like to scoot to work and back year round....
