                  Remember seeing this species when I was a kid..would like to see the final result

                  Don't know but lately after seeing All the new releases...whenever I see such species they remind me of my 220 as even it'll turn like them in another 5yrs..but the joy of keeping old bike in mint condition is awewome ...

                    a test report of Explorer from a 1987 magazine which i posted in 2011. you may get much needed info from it, and an extraordinary restoration of explorer from none other than our Power Twin

                      Wow rightly said its become a species now a days and as u said present R15's, P220, KTM's will become a species in another 20 years not in 5 years atleast 😄 ..... My thinking is mostly people restore enfiled 350 standard or RD350 and I love such people who give some kind of life, Re-birth thats the word i was searching for REBIRTH to these wonderfull amazing machines in which our great grand fathers, grand pa's and sme cases grand ma's 😊 and our Dads would have tried all that what we love to do to our Gen Machines and thats the reason i wana restore such unloved or not so famously machines like Explorer, super D 175 and bring them to the former glory and take them for a spin once in a while and make way for the young generation to have respect for the Oldies and start loving them too 😊

                        Wow thats Frank Sir unbeliveble i am a great fan of you Sir, I loved your Rx100 story and the love u had for it ..... I have been inspired by you to buy a '86 Rx100 and to restore it and believe me i have learnt from you many things like example the first batch came with the Nippon siki instument cluster so when i bought mine the bike didt have the cluster in it so i have imported a nippon Seki Rx 100 cluster brand new from Japan for my restoration and also my Rx is also Pecock blue... Sorry i went offtopic frds but he has been a role model and also thanks for your info on the test report which i have downlaoded and printed in 2012 again after seeing you post I read through the entire report and simply said WOW😳 and thanks for Introducing Power Twin, and I will try to PM him for some support for parts 😬. Do visit this thread often and give you valuable suggestions

                                Hey guys an update !!! Got the frame and few parts painted today from the painter and the black paint has come good except in some places where that guy has wraped it with news paper.

                                some places where its not completely dried has got some marks from the news paper. 😒
