	This Type I engine case is still covered with the protective wax that was applied at the factory. It's shown here with a Type I gearbox case.

	Dave Finlay's M1S! Wow!
	The rear seat grab handle was left off at Dave's request. I love that front fender!
	Meanwhile, Gerald paid a visit to a local chrome plating shop.
	He's keeping them busy with an order for enough bits to do 20 bikes.
	This is the tank...
	...and these are some of the parts.
	Handlebar, sidecar hardware and rear seat pedestals.
	Front fender brackets?
	Even a chromed center stand.
	Sidecar wheel dust cover.

	This PLA issue 1993 M1M is on deck for restoration by LRM. It has an excellent Lanxiang engine.
April 6, 2004
	This is a 1987 PLA M1 undergoing restoration for a customer at LRM.
April 6, 2004
	Looks like at least 50 gas tanks from Gerald's latest buying trip to the legendary CJ Wonderland!
	There's your classic CJ swoosh emblem. This one appears to be a decal rather than a sticker.
	One of the gas tank boxes.
	A whole crate full of handlbar levers.
	Throttle grips galore!
	Handlebar risers too.
	Spokes and nipples.
	Rear seat pedestals. These are the good ones!
	Center stands.
	Look at all those sidecar frames!
	And look at the thorough job they did wrapping them up.
	How'd you like to be the one upwrapping all of them?
	And here are all the bike frames.
	Gas tank fuel strainers.
	Original style battery hold-down brackets. These work with the tall 6V battery mounted on the frame just aft of the foot shifter.
	Brake light switches!
	Last but not least, I count 27 saddles in this shot—12 front and 15 rear. You know who contact for high quality vintage CJ parts—LRM.
March 30, 2004
	Two more gorgeous LRM bikes ready for their new owners. This one's an M1M...
	...and here's an M1S with a lowered front fender.
	Nice details here. Look at those Chinese number tags! I hope the new owner likes them as much as we do!
March 26, 2004
	It's the main man! Gerald sits on an M1S solo that'll soon be on its way to the US.
	That's a temporary exhaust system used for testing purposes only.
	Nice bike... I'll bet this thing will haul ass.
March 25, 2004
	These two pretty black M1Ms are just being completed at LRM. Who are the lucky owners going to be?
March 24, 2004
	LRM just acquired more interesting goodies including these mirrors.
	You can see a set of them here on the cover of the 1981 parts catalog. Neat!
March 22, 2004
	Dave Finlay's M1S nears completion. Dave's gonna love it!
	What an excellent bike! That lowered front fender sure does look good.
	The exhaust system is a temporary installation for checking out the engine. Is this a sweet looking Chang or what?!
	Meanwhile inside the shop, LRM has more bikes under construction. Here's one of them...
	...and here's another. Gerald lives CJ750s, 24-7.
March 21, 2004
	This M1S looks like it's ready for its new home. Nice!
	Four fresh Lanxiang M1M engines awaiting installation on LRM bikes.
	Does your CJ have a correct frame tag? If not, you'd better contact LRM. This tag was missing from my DTE bike.
	An M1S being built in the LRM assembly area.
	You can already see that this is going to be a terrific bike!
	This is a great product—a Km/H-MPH speedometer.
	LRM sidecar bikes are fitted with correct sidecar mounting hardware. These cotter pins are very important.
	Another view.
	LRM favors the use of Allen screws and bolts for assembling various components. This one is on a front fender.
	Genuine vintage CJ hand grips!
	An M1S engine just prior to installing the deep sump oil pan.
	With the pan in place. If you're going to do any serious riding on a CJ, you absolutely must have a deep sump. Trust me.
	It just about doubles the crankcase capacity. This modification will save your engine during a long ride on a hot day.
March 16, 2004
	Driving around Beijing, down by the Shou Gang furnace. What's that up ahead?
	There's something familair in the back of that blue truck. Let's catch up with it.
	Whoa, now there's something you wouldn't see in the States!
	A pair of green M1Ms... on their way to LRM!
March 14, 2004
	LRM is very busy these days. These are the clutches on an M1S solo currently under construction.
	Detail of the starboard jug...
	...and the port side. Look at that number tag!
	This is the frame of an M1 solo that's soon to be built.
	Again, from the stern. You can see the 6V battery tray on this frame.
	Steering head on the M1 frame.
March 13, 2004
	What does LRM have in stock these days? How about this M1S solo?
	Or a sweet looking black M1M sidecar rig?
	Bikes! Loads of them!
	Here's another one. Look at all those Changs! WOW!
	Need fenders?
	Fenders, gas tanks, etc. LRM has everything.
March 12, 2004
	This is a 1966 CJ LRM is restoring. It has an R71-style lowered front fender using brackets that LRM makes in their shop.
	This is a genuine vintage CJ taillight minus the housing and lens. LRM uses vintage style wiring with fabric insulation.
	We've already seen how the bike taillight wiring was routed on vintage Changs. Here's an example of how it was done on the sidecar. This particular sidecar is of the old M72 variety with the framework extending over the fender.
March 7, 2004
	LRM sells these sidecar duckboards. Here's how they look installed—a perfect fit. Looks like a very decent quality product.
	Look at this huge stock of M1-2 pistons! You know who to contact if you'd like a set.
	And here's a dozen CJ engines—both OHV and SV—all of which will find their way into LRM project bikes. Wow!
March 6, 2004
	A Type I engine on deck for restoration by LRM.
	This engine will eventually find its way onto a restored vintage CJ. Type I engines had the dipstick down low as you can see here.
	A Type I disptick.
February 24, 2004
	This lovely M1S is a work in progress for one of LRM's many customers.
	Nice, eh?
	I especially like the R71-style front fender and thin braces.
	Typical Chinese CJ battery tray.
	The 6V Shengjia (Fine Sound) DL38-6 is a great looking horn. They are available from LRM at very reasonable prices.
	This is a 1960 Type I CJ engine Gerald just got.
	The Type I has its dipstick mounted in a lower position. Click here to learn more about vintage CJ engines.
	Vintage SV engine casings that LRM keeps in stock for restorations.
	Look at them all!
February 19, 2004
	On deck for restoration by LRM is this 1968 M1 that Gerald picked up yesterday morning. Take a look at the M72 style sidecar frame!
	From the port side. It has the correct Type II engine and an early Type II gearbox.
	The rear fender is also vintage. It has holes for the wiring and reflector. The taillight isn't original.
	A Type II headlamp with holes for screws, not turn signals. The headlamp visor is a CJ trademark not found on R71s or M72s.
	It's all there!
	The toolbox tank is not original since they weren't produced before 1971.
	Grease fittings like this aren't found on modern CJs but they're everywhere on the older ones.
	There's another one.
	There's even one for the steering gear buried under that dust.
	And a 6V Shanghai horn. Maybe this bike will become the Gamma Project.
February 12, 2004
	On deck for restoration at LRM is this well-used, ex-PLA 1971 bike. (Hey, look at all the neat bikes parked behind it!)
	From the starboard quarter.
	The sidecar frame is a bit different from what's being sold nowadays.
	Fuel tank tool box.
	It'll clean up nicely, trust me.
	Grease fitting on the seat pedestal. They no longer make them like this.
	Rugged handlebar mounting hardware too. It makes mine look like a pile of junk.
	This is sort of a rarity nowadays. It's a vintage sidecar fender light which, unfortunately, has been painted over.
	And last but not least, something every Chang Jiang should have, a vintage PLA rear fender reflector... but not painted over.
January 9, 2004
	This 6V M1 belonged to one of LRM's customers, an Australian girl. Sadly, this bike has since been crushed due to the new regulations.
