It only cost 400/- for chrome and buffing+polish. I still can't believe it.

Ya bro thats a decent money and the work realy is briliant buffing is just polishing the raw Al so shudnt take much money except the labor cost...

Update #10...............

Its coming together nicely. Now with the wheels installed and most of the non essential bits on the bike, all that remains is to fit the engine.
The crank and Cylinder are back from the lathe and the con-rod has been installed nicely (no distinguishable play in it). The cylinder looks very well done and I am told that at the end of this I will have two Cranks and two cylinders (1 of both to spare) so I can Install them in the future if I need to but I doubt that will be needed as the work on the existing original Japanese crank and cylinder is immaculate.

Here is the Cylinder and Crank.............................

Next update post Tuesday.........................

Am sooper excited this bike looks stunning in the peacock blue i am loving !!

Any plans for the seats? paint job looks super cool BTW

The seat is of the original design and happens to be immaculate but do you think I should still get it re-upholstered?
Its still in great condition.
And Thanks BTW

I didn't know that original seats look this way, most of the 100's I have seen have very thin seats with a hump in the middle. If it is original its better to leave it that way If you don't mind could you PM me how much was spent totally to restore this beauty, I was planning to get one and restore, but couldn't find a decent one with all papers, so settled for a semi restored one!

Ah yes the humped one.
That is actually a popular mod but the original comes as a straight seat with no hump.

By Monday I'll be getting the final quote as there is a problem that has crept up. I mentioned the same in my last update (update #11) and so I have to wait until Monday to see if the problem is fixable or not.
I will surely pm you the final quote by Monday night.

Thought that was how it would look! thanks for the clarification I have bought a semi restored one few days back, planning to bring it to good condition with what I have right now (just 5 K).

Changes planned:
New RX100 badge
Have to remove tank cover and past matte vinyl on top of tank, top has lots of scratches from the cover, and vinyl might help avoiding paint fade.
Yamaha badge on crank cover
Saree guard (matte again, doesn't rust)
Rust removal or replacement of exhaust (rust removal is being done(DIY), have to see if it works out)
Polish(DIY)
Upper part of chain guard(paint peeled off)
But first I must make sure that engine and other mechanical components are in good condition, if not will spend the 5 K for mechanical work. Will open a thread if there is no mechanical problem.
