The RXZ rebuild :) - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

atul_astro · 02-23-2010, 01:50 AM

Managed to get my hands on a decent 4 speed RXZ for peanuts so picked it up instantly. Plan is to rebuild it to stock spec and have a bling commuter as most of my bikes look like shit :P Plus a few recent spills on my RXG have screwed up its chassis beyond repair. So will have to rebuild that too :P

I have had a long time dream to own one of these and have it in a Yamaha blue shade with 5 speed stickers. A lot of work needs to go into the bike and I've already procured most of the spares. Hope to get the bike running right and get a lot of crucial spares along my way

Pics to follow soon

Cheers
