1988 model RX100 - Bringing back to Glory
I bought a 1988 model Escorts RX100 in my home town.
As I was not in town for last two months and I was not able to do anything to the bike also. Here are some pictures of the bike when I got the bike.        Bike requires lot of work to bring back to it's glory. I request all the members to provide help and pour your comments on the restoration. I will be doing the restoration in my home town itself. My mechanic told me that the most of the spares are available there. If not I will try to source it from Bangalore or some where else. Wish me luck guys

It looks pretty good for a bike that old
 Where is your hometown? Is it genuine 42xxx kms on odo? What bore is it running on? Y1? Any reboring/replacement done? How is it running? Lot of questions man, few pics wouldn't suffice if you are actually seeking an answer  All of us do wish the very best for RXians Do keep us posted.EDIT: At this rate xbhp will end up being the official database for re-builds I guess :P
