Started messing about with decals. Didn't like the stripes, so i have now removed them. I think the thick stripe is too bold, so going toget just 2 thinner stripes.

Good job matey

The stripes look fine to me.

But it's YOUR project so YOU decide.

Looks good & some great work. Hope when I actually get started on mine I can do a similar quality of work.

With the leg shields back on and some shiny mirrors too! Once it's running properly i'll get some pictures of it that are relatively decent.

Well today i re-fitted the 50 engine as i couldn't get the 80 to run. So it is now "on the road". A couple of odds and sods to do, but all are capable of being done as i use it. I'll have a run down to the seafront in the next couple of days and take some better pics.

Great project. Nice to see another yam back on the road. Well done

stay safe

Well, i finished off the decals, i'm pretty happy with them.

I think that is about it, other than making a better exhaust hanger, so unless something drastic happens, the project is now complete!

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement, it is nice to hear you've done a good job.

I am considering selling this instead of the Honda as my dear wife has intimated that i *may* be doing full test for my 30th in May, figured it may be better to keep on the roads on a motorbike rather than moped in the interim period.

well done it looks great but somethings missing?

Great job man , those are a lovely little bike . I'd flog the Honda !

Has anybody got a metal battery cover for a Yamaha V 50 ..... mine got nicked and I need one!!  Thanks for any help or suggestions where I might find one.
