125cc Engine and Welder
MOT is due for November...
But i have been to see a few Welders/Fabricators and have been quoted 100.00 to repair my rear fender
on my Honda C70c
Im not sure if it is worth it for that price, as i only paid 75.00 for the bike...
theres nothing wrong with the rest of the bike, just the rust on the back will cause an MOT fail.
So i was thinking of picking up a 90cc engine or a 125cc if i can to bring me back...
its not worth upgrading to a Honda CB/CG
Some advice? what should i do? sell or repair?

Re: 125cc Engine and Welder
Could you get that price down by stripping the frame out yourself?
