Looks good, wish I was still riding. I usually rode when at my brothers go-kart races where mx tracks were at.

sweet! i think im going to buy a ttr125 and do the same thing this summer.

willyd465 -> RE: mx bike transformation (still in progress) (4/13/2008 8:24:41 PM)
i didn't really do too much to it, just new plastics and graphics all around and chain and sprockets, but there will be more done this summer

i had like a 1985 honda xr80. it was the most badass bike ever [:D] it was the best bike to dump the clutch and just do fat brakestands cause nothing was sensitive or over powerful. like on my friends kx80 the front brakes were super sensitive and i flipped it and went over the bars lol

I have a powercore 2 sitting right next to me. For some reason the cone is flipped upside down and it doesnt seem to fit my bike. Hey, can you see the spark arrestor or no? I want to double check before I take it out on trail.

I want to double check before I take it out on trail. the power core 2 isn't a spark arrestor, your thinking of the turbine core 2 silencer

britt21 -> RE: mx bike transformation (still in progress) (4/14/2008 2:29:36 PM)
Well.. I'm a girl and growing up everyone I knew- Rode bikes. But everyother one Ive had , were nothing like the YZF. Personally, I love it. Its definantly got more then enough power for me. I like that I can trail ride it, or ride it on the track. I got One Industries - Delta Graphics.

willyd465 -> RE: mx bike transformation (still in progress) (4/14/2008 8:38:17 PM)
nice looking graphics, i have crf 250 im trying to sell, and i love that bike to death, but i was riding the wheels off of that thing and decided it would be cheaper to buy a 250 and sell the crf then porting/cam/high compression piston in the crf
