Little restoration of my new buy: Yamaha BYZ 401! (From Italy!)
Kaba:
Thanks a lot! Today i have taken a little seat similar the original with padding and kevlar (Original for race bikes). (Donated by a friend!)
Knobs are in shipping ( 2-3 days) red and white chessboard on they... perfect with the rest of the bike
So now I begin to clean and lubrificate all the bike and waiting for the knobs...
I've already seen the photos of the others 401 but they are too perfect for me! I want only a little restauration no more... the old and used beauty is the best!
Nothing special... Only a small restoration for a rare bike!

Hi Kaba , welcome to RAD :daumenhoch:
Your English is better than my Italian :-[
Good to see a young one getting involved with the old BMX's , looks like a nice little project you have on the go 8) A bargain at 20 euro's too :shocked:
Ciao :)

i love the world of bikes... especially crossbike and bmx... I am really lucky with this type of business ( a race bike expensive here (300 €) i buy it for only 40 €!)
This is one of the most beautiful project I've ever had because here it's very rare to have an old rare bmx who has 30 years! and then in almost perfect condition!!
So now i fit the seat... Today I think I go to take the knobs (I hope what I ordered because they have a beautiful old school style!) and finally find 2 pedals and perhaps a crank...
meticulous:
good for you kaba! :4_17_5:
