My Lockdown Project

Find out what others have been working on and share your projects.

Leaky oil lines on My T500! I always think of My bikes as an ongoing project, always something to do!

Found a mint 1979 Honda cb250n and I'm going to give it the cafe racer feel.

I am working on a DOHC Honda motor for my neighbour, as well as preparing my VFR for the coming season.

Custom chop, been tinkering on it for years now.....lovely.

I bought this 1979 Suzuki x7 to do up and now I've got the time

I built it from hoarded spares for my standard black and yellow one, hence the ragged appearance. Many of your parts on it, finally got it road registered with an age-related (88) plate. It’s got a Stan Strpjens tunes motor and Martin77 pipes, looks rough but is mechanically sound and goes like a good little stinker

My 1976 KZ900Ltd & 1992 KDX125

My own personal bike Suzuki M109r. In for a service. Apollo Motorcycles Manchester.

I'm using this sunny weather to get a few garage projects done. My 1968 BSA A65 special. Doing a deep clean and making sure everything is tight with no loose or missing bolts and nuts :) And my ZZR1100 - just bought a rear caliper kit off you.

SS50, 5 speed. Just sprayed the frame. Hanging up to dry along with a Z50a‎. No time to be bored!!

1982 Kawasaki 750 LTD. The battery box was a bit scruffy, so stripped and painted, then the frame looked bad sooo, next thing bits all over, frame coated and 6 months later nearly finished. Should be ready for the end of the lockdown.

Suzuki ZR50K X1-first run today after engine rebuild!

1977 Yamaha XS650D that I've bought as isolation project, non-running. Running now !

I have just completed one RD and am working on the second one in the pic. First one took about 6 years and was red. My son stole that off me for his 17th birthday, so I started on the blue one. Found I had so many spares I started on a third and have a YPVS in the pipeline as well but no pics yet.

Rebuilding a Yamaha Xt600Z Tenere 1986. Been doing it since 2013 nearly done now.

I'm also about to start work on my 1978 Honda 50 after years of sitting in the shed. I had to finish my 1978 CB 400/4f first. Just a few minor jobs to be done on the 400/4 like change those incorrect rear indicators tank and side panels still good nick. Nearly time to start stripping the little Honda 50. Both bikes are 1978.

Just ordered a load of parts from you to start my new project

2000 st 1100 pan European, just changed the cam belt need a service kit !

Putting some new wheel bearings and a bit of a de-rust on my VN 800 Drifter, and have also fitted some stainless rear calliper pistons as it is used in the winter it all helps all from yourselves.

Two 1978 z750 twins (his n hers), 1980 z400j, Estrella 250 trials

Unfortunately there aren't many pattern parts available for the Izh Jupiter. However, I have converted the front brakes, using an old Kh 250 front tls. I bought a pair of universal handlebar levers and a CG125 front brake cable from you, last week
