With the Ruckus being at the shop near completion and the weather getting cold around here, time to focus on another project. I will try to do this one mostly by myself in the garage. It will be a slow slow build :hi:

You look to have a good starting point. I have a heat shield repop for the muffler if you want it for shipping.

Here's a sort of out of order timeline for my Z50AK1 I did a few years ago. (Don't mind the Civil War Plates, I haven't sorted any photos in awhile, just trying to sell them).

Hey Rob, thanks for the post! It actually got me to get my but in the garage and put some some work into it. Long way to go, but at least I'm getting my hands dirty :lol:

Greetings!

I love these little old Honda's. I have the bigger boned brother to your guy sitting in my "shop" for a refresh and engine swap. Check out my CA100T!

Good luck with the build!
