The graphics are from Steve. His ‘guy’ in New Jersey made them.
Credit to sgthubbard60 for the resto..
this is how it came to me.
Undecided on the fork guards but I probably will go the UFO route

That’s like a 1998 or 1999 model but yeah, good find!

Cool stuff coming from Italy! I found a guy who was able to reproduce perfect replica CRE Graphis AND the Marzocchi Magnum45 fork decals that have eluded me for three years... Also scored a lot of Acerbis ISDE numbers from a friend and former ISDE racer. i'm still missing #1's but I have the 6's and 8's to make my number (618) graphics should be here in a few weeks, stay tuned for final build pics!

I am ever so glad i have stumbled across this topic (hopefully) just before the big unveil.
It feels like i have cheated as its taken a topis that has been the boards for 2.5 years and has taken me about an hour to go through.
Absolute works of art guys and Thankyou for the wonderful read.

she's about 97% done. I just have some work to do to get the lights hooked up and working, and I need a skidplate.

Mint!

The FAHQ stickers are a nice touch

I agree. Very nice. An E-Line skid plate would be very nice finishing touch.

I think that will still be a very competitive Vet+ Enduro bike.

Thanks for documenting all of the work and the pictures!  I will be starting a CRE build this summer and I have this bookmarked for the info.  I was invited to a private sale yesterday for the western CRE importer's estate and I was able to procure all the parts/kits he had leftover and one of his personal CRs that he always called a CRE. The only thing that was missing was the Acerbis spark arrestor so if anyone has one that would sell or trade, let me know! (I have rear fenders, CRE frame guards, CRE footpeg kits, lighting coils, skid plates, and graphics for trade)

Should be a fun build!

Let’s see some pictures! And of course if you have extra plastics/rear fenders you’d like to get rid of I’m your guy. What graphics did you get?

Eventually I will start a thread for this build as I have other projects underway.  Here are a couple of pics: showing only 2 of the fenders I have, 1 set of radiator shrouds with graphics (there are more), side panels with graphics (there are more), one of the brake pedal side frame guards, and a grouping of the graphics.  I thought I had a set for the 125 but a quick check in the box and I didn't see them.

Beautiful bikes here!

Love the 80's and 90's enduros, great machines. I don't know why, but always loved the style and shape of this rear fender.

 Cheers.
