Weldangrind's New TW200 Billy Goat
Ok, old TW200.
I bought this one just over a month ago, but I didn't want to show it until I held the legal title. I got that yesterday. It's all kinds of ugly, but it's a starting point that I can live with, and I've wanted one for quite awhile. I can't get a Zong here, so this is the next best thing. This is my favourite view; love that fat rear end! There's a hole in the countershaft cover; I haven't decided if I'm going to "window" it on purpose, or try to repair it with my buddy's TIG welder. The speedo is missing, and the handlebars look like someone had a terrible mishap! 8O I hate this seat colour anyway. It's barn-fresh and loaded with cobwebs. I hope it runs. I'll be working on this at the same time as Son of Weldangrind's TS185. I hope to complete both of them soon, so we can start exploring the local mountain roads. eBay, here I come.
