Andre bought a nice running Rapido in the Uk a couple of weeks ago and as it turns out.. a very rare one. Worth restaurating to it's former glory!
Huib and Andre decided to go for it and last saturday started the project. It's going to take a couple of months for sure, but i'll keep you posted with the progress.
Below some pictures and a video of the bike running (yes running!) of the start of the project and the link to the full album so far.
Taking it apart, it became clear that the frame it f**cked, but not FUBAR, but probably will be hunting for a new frame this week, as there are still frames out there.
It looks like it has been chopped (haha), that won't do. The color now is blue, as you can see, it's originally black.
Here goes: Project ML Rapido 125CC 1968!
The vids of the running bike:
The rest of the progress photo's are here if you are interested and I will keep you posted of the things to come.
