|
|
He's just passed his CBT and wants to spend a little on some cosmetics. He rides a XR125, i think 2003 model.
He's didn't like the look of his XR 100%, so he's sprayed some parts.
What can he buy or do to the bike to make i look better?
I was thinking something to sortt he number plate, and possibly a headlight unit.
Links and names would be great!

Errr, not a large amount is the short answer. Easiest & best way to change is to use it offroad to get it muddy and scratched.
For changing the headlight he could get one of the units from DirtBikeStore.com but be warned they can be very slow to deliver stuff so check if they've got stuff on stock before ordering otherwise it can take weeks for them to get hold of stuff.
For sorting the numberplate I assume you mean getting rid of the big black plastic bit that the plate attaches to. That thing just unbolts and you can then drill a couple of holes in the rear fender and bolt the plate there. It'll be quite horizontal then but you can cut wedge shaped out of the sides and then bend the fender so the angle of the plate is slightly more legit. |

Thanks for the info guys....
In all honesty i think he's bought one of the hardest machines to mod, there isn't much for them. I fhe bought a DTR (which i recommended in the first place) he could buy all sorts of kit for it.
I went out with him at the weekend and he was gutted that my 1988 RXS100 was quicker and had more top end than his XR. ____________________ Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

@ derbi x-treme.. I've never been pulled out on my own and I avoid police like the plaque. A matter of time though. Had no rear L for over a year now (yes i know im a twat but its only illegal when you get caught )
@ Alex_A... A litre bottle of 2t oil lasts around about 4-5 tanks worth which is 60L of fuel / 750 miles. A bottle a month is about right. Just depends how you ride. Some people just pin the throttle Just wasting fuel and oil....
Also if you've only ever ridden 4t then your in for a shock.. You could say a 2t is like riding with a turbo. Sometimes when your cruising along at 6k you get this urge give the throttle a quick twist ____________________ 04' DT125RE (run-a-bout) // 89' DT125R (rebuilt + supermoto conversion)
