Giving some love to an old friend...
« on: April 04, 2013, 09:47:48 AM »
Finally finished a project! We did a 90% resto of my good condition 1972 Rickman-Zundapp MX125. We really didn't know what we were in for but the finished product speaks for itself.  I intended on racing it once or twice a year but it turned out so well that now it sits in my BED ROOM rather than the MAN CAVE (garage). I threaten to leave it there permenantly but she said she'd move out...and SOMEONE has to do the dishes. Special thanks to Marco Barcelos, Luis Moniz, and Antonio Gil for all their hard work.

In addition to these, Luiz has posted pics on his Facebook page of the whole process...over 200 of them!

And just FYI...I did ride it up the street and through my yard. Yes, it comes with extra neutrals but it also starts on the first kick and I bet I could vintage trials on it!

If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

I wonder how Helmut's Superzapp project is going?
