 Posted: 13:24 - 12 Jul 2004  Post subject: It's getting there! |
 |
|
Supermoto wheels are £1300 with brakes and tyres  so I've got some converted FZR wheels for the time being as they are mucho cheaper.
They are nearly on!!
The rear wheel has had the cush drive welded in with a metal plate and a custom disc has been made as a standard disc isn't wide enough. The spacers and stuff are all ready and wheel can now be fitted!
Front wheel is the same, spacers etc are ready to be fitted, just waiting on my MX Stand to turn up.
Next thing is installing a digital dash (ooo trick) and a supermoto fender and headlight.
I'm either going to get some matching graphics for the tail fender or get a new set of plastics in all black (I think it looks cool  )
The wheels are being powdercoated black next week  and the front disc centre is being sprayed gold  as I can't find a chaep wavy disc for it and I'm not spending too much as I'm buying a proper supermoto wheel set up and beringer brakes in a month or two..
Trackday (race ) no 1 is 23rd July provided I can get there. Should be fun
The wheels...

Will stick some more pictures up once I finally get these wheels fitted and powdercoated, and will also stick pics up of the moto fender.
I've also got a CRD race pipe to go on and shortly I need to re-jet it and I need to play about with the gearing (I have about 4 set ups to chose from) future plans for a YZF cam and possibly a 450cc big bore

Really splashing out, aren't we...  |

Not my type of bike but think it will look quite cool with those wheels on mate.

The wheels should look "alright"... I'm not a big fan off 3 spoked wheels on motards, and they aren't really ideal as it means I can't jump the bike more than a foot or so unless I want to end up at local A&E because my wheel snapped  but they'll do for now
The bike has a full MX set up too which it's (almost) in now.. and I'm hoping to try out an enduro later this year/next - they look fun

Also, you want to turn the back wheel around, chains never go on discs too well.

I wondered why it went faster when I braked and slowed down when I twisted the throttle 
I have just fitted a CRD race pipe.
I'm scared 
It'll set car alarms of from a mile away...
Think moto gp bike, think my WR400 .. it's offensively loud

Very nice bike mate. Any pictures of the exhaust? Also... where do you get all your money from? Mugging old ladies? I only wish I had enough money to afford bikes as nice as yours at 19!
