Title: Ryan's V50II resto
Post by: ryanolivieri on September 11, 2019, 08:58:54 AM

I waited to post this bike until I actually had it running.  It only took me 5 years.  All new plumbing and electrical, lots of freehand metalwork, rebuilt forks, calipers, a few junkyard goodies from Italy. Check it out.  Sorry for the caps, I ripped it from my website.

Very nice rebuild.

I like your electrical setup, similar to mine. I do need to clean my wiring up during winter. It didn't turn out as well as I would have liked.

I am curious to know how you like the moto gadget two button indicator setup. I greatly dislike it if I have to be honest. It is one of the first things to be changed in winter.

Thanks for sharing your project!
