RX8 50cc build

[benhonda]

I got this eurostrada 50cc rx8 a few weeks back. 

Some of the plastics were damages, lights and wiring were a mess, no key, hacked wire harness ect.

I stripped the wiring down to only what is needed for now.  I runs great!

So tonight I mocked up how I want to build it into a road worthy bike again.

The tank is a mockup, but the one I bought off ebay is very similar in size.

I have generic turn signals and brake light coming.

I will use the headlight shown because I already had it.

And I have materials to build a basic seat.

I have some parts scooters that I hope to pull turn signal switch, headlight switch and brake master cylinder from.

I think once it is built, it will look pretty dang cool.

Cool build!The seat looks like a pain in the arse though...

I like where you are going with this build.

Got the new seat and tank in the mail today.
Got them mocked up.
The tank isn't as tall as the orange honda tank, so it doesn't fill out the scooter as much.
Maybe with some bright yellow strips on it to match the wheels it will stand out more?
I also have a circle headlight with built in turn signals coming for the front.
Tomorrow I hope to buy some steel to make the mount bar for the tank. Once it is on and plumbed, the bike can
be driven again.
