Re: Replacement rear shock

Contact YSS in Adelaide and they will have (if not have make) a shock to fit and tailored to your weight.

They are doing shocks for a couple of my bikes, seems nothing is too hard or odd for them

If you in SA I could suggest someone to do your forks too.

Hi Andrew,

Yes a Mito, love the little thing is so much fun. At present my dad, now 87, has it and is riding it regularly

The dents in the tank were in the worst possible place (aon the corners) and had started looking for new tank when found this guy.

Love his work.

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

I agree about the Aprillia (sp) would happy have one of them, would make a nice pair.

I see a guy regularly around where I live riding a RG500 .... have thought of asking if he wants to sell it, then have a reality check, need another bike like a hole in the head.

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

Andrew,

This is how I got the Cagiva tank back .... all done by hand with a twist on the Cagiva logo.

After all, not sure about others 750S but mine is covered in the little elephant , so maybe more Cagiva

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

Hi Andrew, Happy to measure the RGV wheels when i get back home, wont be until early Feb tho'. Should have done it while I had them both out a while ago. I have just changed the rear RGV wheel back to the original, somebody had fitted a rear 18" (I think) so now it is back to totally original. ...

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

Hi Andrew, I will get details from my son and post them here for you as I don't have them with me and presently at sea (work). Price I guess is relevant but in my opinion (for what it is worth) is fair .... his work is bloody good. When he did the Cagiva tank I wanted it a little more personal ... s...

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

Hi Peter, Booked by cops for noise .... strange thing is that they don't book one of their own and enough of the cops around now know son is one of them and leave me alone too. My neighbours do have a laugh because they say they can hear it coming as it echos thro the hills. She still turns heads. D...

Re: 750 Sport restoration project

Hi Andrew, Not sure who you going use to fix your tank but there is a guy here in Adelaide who is bloody good. I had him take dents out of Cagiva tank and did not think he could do it, amazing as is his paintwork. Has now done several tanks for me and even to the point of painting the decals on. Can...
