Hello all, I'm new to the site and am from Liverpool, Merseyside. I'm now on my 2nd motorcycle project and its turned out to be more unique than i initially planned.

Its a rolling project, so have to keep it Roadworthy-ish when doing my modifications.

1st here is my 1st ever project, Made my pit bike Road Legal

The stock 85cc honda engine was replaced with a Stomp pitbike 120cc chineese engine as the engine bolt pattern is the same. Wanted a similar engine to pitbikes as i kinda know what i'm doing with those engines, wiring looms etc.

Anyway, the mental quarter life crisis began, Chopped the back end off the poor cub, swapped the front end for a cg125 copy. Made my own seat out off wood i carved, wrapped in durable leather. Pictures tell a better story lol.

Got some 1" Harley cruiser handlebars, just need a wider throttle to fit it. Want to make a wheel cover for the back wheel to cover the spokes.

I've now got a better reg plate mount but no update pictures on that yet.

Comments, tips, constructive criticism welcome. I'm learning as i go so any help appreciated.
