1997 RX-Z Restored!

1997 6-Speed RX-Z Restoration Project

Do you still remember the picture above? It is about a Yamaha RX-Z bike that I bought for RM500+ that I’m going to restore sometime in May 2008.
Now, the restoration has finished. Enjoy the picture below and look for the original look for the bike before any restoration has been done.
Newly painted engine cover but the kick starter has not been replaced yet since there is no stock for the original one
Carburetor is new since the old one is very dirty and hard to clean
 
New rims, tyre, hub, rear footrest but old exhaust painted to black
Definitely restored to full glory 

Nicely done in black with green stripe

There is nothing more satisfying other than looking at the bike that once is hedious and teribble but now looking like new and full of spirit.
Remember to read the previous look of this bike here!
