Alex, do you think the Honda decal would be easy to remove, or is there clearcoat on top?

I took it out for a couple of laps around the cul-de-sac this afternoon. It has a very different feel to it than previously, the riding position is completely changed and the street tires have a much more positive feel to them.
I don't think I got over 25 on it and I've got to get a new speedo cable to adapt the CB200 wheel to the chinese speedo. I also got a replacement rear light/plate holder to fit on. I'm not running with mudguards either end, because I don't have to.

it was a nice and overcast this morning as opposed to being over 100f, so I decided to take the bike out for it's first run. I did about 30 miles in all and it felt pretty good. It's definitely very chuckable and flicks from left to right very easily. I ended up dropping about 20lbs in weight over all converting it from dirt to street.
I got it up to 62mph per my GPS and that was at about 9200rpm in top, so that's about it I reckon until I get the new engine parts and convert it from 125 to 225.

That's decent speed for a 125cc four stroke!

I pushed my TS100 to 70mph, but I was 55# lighter back then.

I like the look of that...I have a spare TMEC enduro which needs to do more than provide spare parts for me. I know that Wade from Excalibur has offered me a new frame and/or engine, so it is tempting to do something with the spare bike!

 Is it CNC based, using a router? I'd love to see / hear more about it. Any chance you'd start a thread on it?
