Hi guys,
I thought I'd share a few pics of my series 1 rebuild
My rear hub failed on last years Mille Miglia... I put it in a ditch, bending the forks and damaging the frame
The hub snapped because I bolted a storage box near there from my series 3 and it rubbed on the hub
Strip down starts
Frame repair!
Powder coat everything
Now for paint! I've decided to do everything myself at home... It's my second attempt, my series 3 was my first and it's not very good! Very orange peely and dry. This has turned out quite a bit better!
The frame is powder coated metallic silver with clear coat and other bits blue by Nicholai from High performance coatings (gpts1)
Running out of room in my shed!!!
It took an age to arrive but I finally got my Mito double disc!
Painted the last few bits and back together!
Last weekend there was a motorcycle show in Auckland... There was a pro photographer there so I coughed up $20 and got some pics!
Now I just need to ride it!
My series 1 back from the dead

Nice job mate, feels good to do it yourself.
That yellow and blue thing in the background caught my eyes...
