If you have another mode for commuting what i suggest is to wait until you get all the parts and start the rebuild. It gives a clean look as well as you don't have visit you mechanic every time.

Ya, i have another bike but such a long wait, 18 days already is really frustrating. Now i really doubt if the tank would reach me!

Congrats Atul on your restoration. It brings me a smile whenever I spell YAMAHA
The restoration is turning out well

I don't think you would get a RXZ at that price tag here in Chennai

Excellent restoration. I vaguely remember a query regarding transfer of ownership, if it was your query did you get the transfer done buddy? Do post a few more pics as you assemble the bike and also the complete bike in the end.

Take care of your clutch cover as it belongs to the list of hard to get spares!

I waited for more than 6 months just to get the whole parts and the mechanic took a good time just to assemble everything, i didn't had anything else to ride. 18 days is not a long time period atul. We want to see a spanking new RXZ

PS --Please take maximum photographs and post it here!!

Thanks srikany bro, yes it was me who posted the query and it has been sorted out. Once my bike clears fitness test, it will be transferred to my name

Bike should be ready soon, jut the tank delay is killing me. Should have been ready two weeks back

Thanks rxdude

parts collection was almost complete long back, just the tank has been delaying the outcome

Me and mechanic are both going slow as body kit is yet to be painted,
once i get the tank, bike should be ready in 3days max

Good to know Atul that you are almost there with the brand new Z. Lets accommodate some more patience within us as we have come a long way. So little more time will not deter our spirit.

yes sir, almost there

a few things will be due and would be done in the next months like the 5-speed casings, front disc!
had the guy who was supposed to send the tank clearly said that he hasnt sent it yet and is just trying to fool me, i would have got my bike ready by now and wouldnt have waited three weeks for the tank

Everything is being done in my shed, and hence only a few people here know about my plans

Got maruti 800's headlight today, it almost fits in, but has no clamps to fix it to the black doom.
With slight modification, slicing of the mask around the lower curves i think it could be used. Make is Lumax so it kind of gives on OE like feel

a few pics:

[ATTACH=CONFIG]96615[/ATTACH]

seniors please suggest something

Nice work Atul.
Can you please advise how much modifications were required to M800 headlight for this OEM fitting

How did you fix the clamps? Any pictures would be appreciated.

Also, did you go for Left or Right headlight of M800?
If I remember correctly, the Left beam would be aligned a bit towards the left for our RHD configuration?

Thanks.

thanks vaasu bro

the existing dome is being used. Its the right side headlamp and am yet to fix it.
Some fibre was removed from the inner sides of the mask to accomodate this slightly larger headlamp, i used a sharp knife to do it.
A small custom made rim will be required to fix it to the dome

Regarding the bulb holder, it comes with H4 was raises another issue for those who want to use the existing 35w bulb as H4, to my search is not available in 35w!! and HS1 cannot be fitted. So after searching and thinking a lot, i just modified (CUT) the existing bulb holder at some points so as to fix it in the Maruti 800's Headlight assembly.

problem solved

Total cost of the setup-
Headlamp Assembly- Rs.220
Rim - depends upon the fabricator

**atulgupta230489** · 03-25-2013, 12:47 AM

Update

UPDATE:

Nearly 80% done!
The tank and other fibre parts are getting painted tomorrow, the existing seat will get a new cover and will be used until the new seat arrives!
Everything else seems to be done. Engine was started, and i just could not control myself so went for a small test ride in my colony in this condition itself

I dont have a compression gauge but could feel that the compression is very good.

Here are a few pics, were taken from my damaged phone hence not so clear

Bike is coming up real good.

**SriramEfunds** · 03-25-2013, 11:05 AM

Atul, the engine crankcase cover painting looks good. Are you going for catcon or chrome exhaust? If catcon, then try to get the shield chrome done with similar color so it even betters. There is some thing calls color dipping, just like how they do it for bolts and nuts, you can try experimenting to something in those lines.
Just my 2 cents.

**dual disc 200** · 03-25-2013, 01:21 PM

Good Going Atul... Bike is coming up wonderfully good...!

The shade of Silver on the casings looks more of golden to me, is it so??

Plus, the RX Foot rest rubber is an eyesore...You've done so..much pls.change it to Z rubbers too..

Apart from all that, looks wonderful and waiting to see it completed..:-)

Hi Ram,

I hope that is the stock RXZ foot rest rubber at least for 4 speed... are you refering to YBX foot rest rubber with footguard...

As Sree said the painting looks really good. Which is the shox you are using?
Again I am just saying, you could have waited for all new parts to arrive. Just my opinion Atul, please don't mind.
