Why would you call a T3 a G5?
Nice bike anyway

It’s a G5 John. I picked it up for $200.00 about five years ago and in rebuilding it swapped in T3 bodywork and Motogadget electrics.  I guess I could just call it a T3 but that seems dishonest. The only real difference at this point is iron liners and displacement.  I’m about to try to sell it. Here are pictures then and now.

Ok, thanks. It was early when I saw the vid and I was barely awake. Nice bike! I’ve got an 02 Stone with Jackal body parts. It was a total that I repaired for Deb to ride. She calls it a Stonal  :grin:

That's a very nice job!

Is that the headlamp unit that MG Cycle sells? (I'm still needing a headlamp after mine fell out of its shell last Fall.)

Moto

I’m pretty sure it is from MG Cycle. It fits fine.
