workman Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I wanted to say hi as a new member and share my story. This bike is the bike my father gave me in 1980, the year before he passed. It was originally a stock GTMX80...yellow in color and took a beating from me. 30 years later, I've been able to restore the bike and give it to my 11 year old son. I know it's not original and restored to stock, but all the parts are stock and the same that I rode on when I was 10, excluding the piston and rings. I'll show before and after pics if the site allows. And BTW, these are the colors and all my son wanted. Hope you enjoy. Thanks, Workman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted June 25, 2011 Moderator Share Posted June 25, 2011 Great story, the pain finish is real quality looking, maybe she will contiue as a family heirloom although you will no doubt have to start making parts eventually, hope 'junior' takes care of it and on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
