Hi, just bought a heap of bits amounting to the major working parts of an import 1977 CB125J, as mrs has got me CBT for my 40th, so will be after advice on getting it running and registered.
What I have :
- frame, decent, but could use a lick of paint
- engine with new carb, points, battery, compression and spark but prev owner couldn't start it
- gearbox and sprockets, should be ok
- forks, bit sad
- wheels with brakes, mostly
- tank, headlight, bit rough and been "painted"
What I don't have :
- seat
- clocks
- chain
- lights, or any real idea exactly which ones it expects
- reg, or much of a clue as to how to obtain one
- probably much more
Sadly previous owner chucked a load of bits, including fenders points cover, side panel, seat, etc, so likely never return to original, but would be nice to get it close as a mild period custom.
For now, could use advice on getting it running without killing it, and getting it reg'd.
Cheers,
- Vince
