Welcome to new member Stevec. Steve was kind enough to send me some pictures of his interest in vintage Japanese and I couldn't resist asking permission to put up a couple of inspiring pics.... Just look at this Kwaka before and after. I threw in the GT as well, such a nice job. Looking forward to what Steve can do with an RE5:    |

Thanks for the intro Wayne. The RE5 is in the garage awaiting treatment. I remeber when they first came out and its been on my list to buy and rebuild for a while now. Obviously the H2 did need a lot of replacement parts but the Frame, most of the engine and carbs, tail section ,grabrail,oiltank,front and resr hubs and disk and a few other bits were saved.The other parts are mostly second hand and restored.

Very nice work matched with very nice choice in bikes. RE5's and Kawi Triples are perfect bookmark bikes of the 70's. Have the same mix of bikes in my garage and find they get along very well. Enjoy the build Attachment Deleted |

Tim has lots of before bikes, not so many after bikes in his garage. Take a page Tim!
