My client saw the ad of of this weird looking 3 wheeled but unique motorcycle in sulit.com that says "swap to sony PSP". He headed immediately to Fairview to get this bike and gave the owner his old PSP. This unit is probably an early 80s model. Still need to research on this. Instead of restoring this to stock. We decided to give it a military inspired look. I just painted it with olive drab and changed the tires to a more rugged look. The stock 49cc 2-stroke engine was overhauled. We still need to update the LTO registration. We restored this bike in 3 months time with lots of headaches and frustrations. In the end It's all worth it!

Gyro x state before

Re: Restomod: Honda GYRO-X

To give it a rugged look, new set of knobby tires were fitted.

Since the frame/chassis and electricals of this scoot is not visible we decided not to paint it.
on the rear of the bike you can see the ATC70 before undergoing it's face lift( For the ATC70 restoration click [COLOR="Red"]here


Partially done!

Re: Restomod: Honda GYRO-X

Some parts of this bike were sourced out, that's the big headache for us. luckily we have a donor bike for this project

Changed the color of the seat and grips to black and the decals to gray instead of white.

Finished Project!

Hey Jolas,

Bro as much as we love viewing the pics of what you are posting with regards to your restoration on different bikes, please do refrain from re sizing the fonts of your captions, yes members here can read clearly the captions you put to accompany each post, do make it simple that it does not compete with the pics posted. Perhaps in some instances to emphasize a word or two but not a whole paragraph.

Hope you will understand that this is a forum that does not need replies in words that seems to be shouting out loud, it may just become a habit of yours during postings so let me just remind you once more, refrain from doing so. Again like I said people here can clearly read and understand what you are trying to convey. :nono:

THANKS, CHEERS and have a peaceful day ahead !!! :balloons: :sunny: :bounceD:
