From the moment I got my license, I always dreamt of riding this bike.
If youāre new here, this is a 1992 Suzuki TS125R that belongs to my dad. Itās been in the family since the late 90ās and my dad took me āpillionā on it at the age of 3 - that was the first time I ever sat on a bike.
The first 3 pics were taken a couple years ago. The fifth pic is the current state!
We started taking the bike apart earlier this year. Itās taking longer than what I expected, but I also seemed to forget that I donāt live in Portugal on a permanent basis and despite the money weāre saving by doing the work ourselves, Iāve already spent over Ā£500 - and unfortunately, I aināt rich in money, just in clumsiness.
I will always be grateful for my kind, patient and loving partner Tips With David who has been taking the lead with this project. Thank you for doing this me š¤
Who knows, maybe in 12 months time it will be up and running. I might even shed a tear š„²
