2002 MotorHispania 50cc
The 2002 MotorHispania 50cc bike was picked up from somewhere near Carlisle, the bike like most, was all in boxes scattered across a workshop and back garden, so after about an hour or so collecting and sorting the parts, it was all moved to the back of the van ready for transport home…
During the restoration process ill update this page with new images and progress on how each section of the bike is coming along.
What i would like to do is start adding some videos of the basic technique’s I use through-out this project and how i went about it…
First of, the bike was stripped of all its plastics, the back end was fully removed to make some room to get into the cab, and air filter, just makes it better to work on also it gives me the chance to get the cleaning done on the swinging arm, the base plastics from all sides were all sanded down and given a primer.
the panels all came out really well, there all ready to get the first coat of some shinny blue.
once the panels all dried the area around the tank bust out in lots of ribs, very large embossed ribs, Not impressed with it at all, even though every care was taken to ensure this or other errors happen.
