Suzuki RG250 Gamma
Here's a few pics of my 250 Gamma project. Bike started life as a Canadian edition half faring bike in blue and white. It will be restored as a Walter Wolf clone. Goal for this year is to get everything except the Motor finished. If I do get to the Engine this year, thats a bonus.
bodywork pre paint
new paint on bodywork
freshly painted fork legs
up next will be re assembly of the forks, painting the wheels, painting the pipes an replacing the silencers.
I still have a full set of extra bodywork and tank, Next year I may get some extra wheels and seats and have the original colour scheme as well. We'll see
Here is the FZR400 I just finished

Re: Suzuki RG250 Gamma
Dave...your yard looks just like mine....and your car too. I saw the same yard in a UK bike mag recently. People must be using Google earth to spy on me.
Re: Suzuki RG250 Gamma
LOL yea, when I have good pics I re use 'em.
If you didnt take such good pictures, and i I didnt buy so much of your stuff....

First thing I thought was "Hey, that's John's place", and I've never even been there!

Re: Suzuki RG250 Gamma
That can be changed Russ. Plenty of nice riding around here. I'll let you ride the 500 and you can tell the naysayers they're all wrong about its handling and performance. A few of us are planning a ride up to Calabogie next week. There is always room for more to join.RuZty wrote: First thing I thought was "Hey, that's John's place", and I've never even been there!

its a good job the RG250 is still in resurection, if i was bored id be out buying more stuff. I just cleaned house on my vintage sled collection as you know. So im only being saved by the fact that my attention is temporarily taken by the RG project.
The temptations keep coming though, a buddy called me last weekend saying he found me a GSXR 750 Ltd with the dry clutch that needs saving.
My wife sees the same trend happening with the bikes as happened with the sleds, I got up to 18 nicely restored or minty sleds, but I have told her (not convinced her) that im in control now, im "all better and fully reovered", and I really only want one or two more bikes...maybe three, unless I find a nice CB1 then its four....or..
