Project Vt500 scot - temp new look

I have a vintage Hella rear light that I want to use, and I'm looking for a new rear fender but since I don't have a welding machine I first made this temporary version with the old metal fender that is hiding under the stock plastic fender plus I re-used the stock rear light. Also 2 new blinkers. I like this rough look :)


Project VT500 Ascot - mockups

I live in Amsterdam in a apartment building on the third floor. My bikes are standing under the building. On the ground floor I have a small place for my bicycles, tools and spare parts. It's not big enough to put my motorcycles inside and there's no electricity. So when I want to use the grinder, etc I throw a extension cord from the balcony and start wrenching on the sidewalk. I made some mockups with stock and old parts that I had lying in the shed.




Project VT500 Ascot Update

Yesterday I started removing parts from the Ascot Twin
