Happy to see this update chopsy, scary to think that your early hyper videos re-ignited my want for a hypermotard but with the 1100's being pretty much unobtainable here in thailand unless your willing to spend stupid money I ended up buying an 821.. its been my pride an joy since and I've literally spent thousands upgrading/modding it, I've done a whole series on my channel over the last couple of years of modding my 821 and here you are just getting back to rebuilding yours.. I'm blaming you for my hyper fetish and I'm sure my wife will thank you for the thousands I've spent... cant wait to see this beast of yours finished and I'm only a little bit jealous because I cant get an 1100....

Hi chopsey whats hapend to mavis no abuse when your working on the bikes.

Lovely L twin again makes me want to buy another one. Ive done a few bikes up apart from nsr250 which imported myself, didnt make money on if you count ours taken doing up. If you want to make money have to be really careful. When i see people bidding on projects when say a nice restored one not mint is say 2500 more think maddness unless you can paint and do engine work then may be ok. But only a few oe parts can be 500£ before you know it.

Thanks Wattie 👍 yeah once I started knew I would bang it out 😄👍

Send in the frame. When it is done and everything is nice, you will focus on the ugly parts right away and it will mess up everything. After you have mounted everything, you can not do anything about it but to tear it aprta again. It is not that much work, just make sure you do not blaster over the framenumber. I really think you will regret not fixing the main frame. I have done this exact project myself with an SP so i really know about regrets when it comes to fixing things with the engine and the mainframe. When they are out, just deal with it

Excellent stuff. Where is Mavis though…..

I do hope you spring for a thickie oil cooler. Its nowhere near as satisfying as an exhaust, but it seems like a kindly thing to do to the bike.
