KLP Racing. U have to be patient for a true craftsman to do his thing, if your doing a build the swingarm I would send out first, then go about other projects on bike build, 🤘🇺🇸
Very nice.
Bad ass paint work!
What did you use on the engine?
Impressive plastic renovation!
The Shop

Legit on it
Ok. I've looked at this thread a few times now, and I'm blown away with this build. The attention to detail, that pipe alone.
But I keep getting distracted by all the other bikes in the background. Clearly, we are dealing with a 1980s mini fanatic, and I'd love to hear more about your plans for say, the 84 and 86 YZ80 I spotted, among others. Is that an 81 RM80?
Dam! I was like… did you refinish/clear those fenders?
That plastic restoration is incredible
That's Dr. Phil at plastic renovations, he works magic 🇺🇸👌
