You do have plenty of time and patience don't you?
Time consuming and expensive if you are to do it right.

Hi Ziggy,
I know it's going to take time & the cost is a bit of a worry & I'm now thinking that perhaps i should have started-out with a more complete bike. I wanted a project, not one that was finished. I jut hope i can find the parts.
Still got my 1964 Honda 90 (C200) to finish (just the wheels refurbished to install & hopefully the engine will run. Did a full restore, every seal & bearing replaced). Got to extend the workshop now, to store the growing number of bikes.
Can wait to get started on the RE5......

Rotary Recycle has EVERY last part on the Re5.
Finding parts is no issue...
It always costs more to restore them than to buy one done. Just the nature of the beast.
Best,
Jess

Hi Les,
Many thanks for showing me your RE5 tonight, for the parts & for the loan of the book & shock spring compressor.
Your bike looks really good. I hope that, may be, one day, mine may look something like yours!
Thanks again,
Nick
