Sorry about the size:)
Did it all with sandpaper and Plasticote Metal Flake paint.
Wheels r shit but I'm gonna get them powder coated at SSS soon.
I'm in dire need of some NSR Decals, could anyone help?
Just something interesting, 2 large NSR's and a few honda's. Maybe a supersport or summat like.
Also... (Big breath..) I need some new rider pegs. My RHS one's knacjered and I'm having difficulty finding replacements. the 1990 NS125R/K Methinks.

Cheers all.

Cheers guys. I know about the chain. Gotta take a link or 2 out till I can get it into the garage for a new sprocket etc:)

Me and my twin bro spent the 4 day break covered in paint and sand paper. Good fun.
Any ideas about the pegs?

Quite easily. Just took some time and loads of paint and sandpaper.
I can totally recommend Plastikote paint. Goes on well and can be re-coated anytime. Leccy sander was invaluable, and A01 sandpaper. Need to allow plenty of days and try to get all the sanding done before the painting starts. We didn't and had trouble with dust etc.
Other than that just keep working at it, no need to sand all the existing paint off, just sand till the gloss goes.
My arm was killing after I sanded all the panels down:)
I honestly believe more people should customize their own bikes.
No-one will ever have a bike exactly the same as mine now:)

Y'all have fun now Very Happy

Bike cost me £800 in October. Plastikote was £5.99 a tin and I used about 3 Red and 2-3 white. Plus 2 Primer.
Not done my frame yet. No time really. Gonna send the wheels off for powdering soon though. Could send the frame but... naa:)
Do you know if I can get hold of some new pegs for mine? It's a pain using crap ones:) Anodised red would be wicked Twisted Evil

Also need some new grips and maybe levers.
Was gonna go for the whole tastynuts range but can't be arsed. I hope to be getting a VFR400 or something like. CBR400 would be lovely:)

I got ne grips and levers for mine from m & P, i dunno about pegs, its easy to find pegs but its if they need a special fitting kit but i spose n e 1 could probably adapt them to fit sum how.

Im looking to do my test soon and try n find a cheap vfr400, hopefully one that the restrictors have mysteriously fallen out! Twisted Evil

Do you have the standand exhaust on urs?

Demonic69 · The Pink Rhino Joined: 31 May 2002 Karma :

It's got a Micron can. Doubt it's restricted (Checked the Carb) but canny get the bugger over 70:(
I'll check out M and P.

Oh, cheers Dan. Morgan were really helpful.
Gonna send me a catalogue. I'm thinking the new style NSR sticker. Looks like a flame or spraypaint or something.
Was just gonna do a stencil but Bro wouldn't let me Very Happy

What year's yours Thrash?

Nice 1 mate, i have a micron can too Smile

Mines a 1990, had loads od trouble mechanically recently but it turned otu to be the simplest of things possible, after 100 notes ne way Sad

Always the case! Mine went in for a service recently and seems to be running fine. Lots of little bits need replacing, like the left mirror, cuz the lass... yes lass!! who had it b4 me pestered her bloke for one, rode it once, crapped her panties and left it to rot on the drive for a year, after ramming it down the driveway wall!

The micron sounds ok too. But again need a little welding:)
£80 on the paintjob, £40 on the chain and sprocket and prob another £60 ish on bits...... I'll only get £500 for it:(
I wish I could keep it but I need it to pay off the insurance on a 400:)

Demonic you should go to the motorcycle city website- you can order a free catalogue from there and they sell all kinds of pegs and anodised bolts etc. I even saw red ones Very Happy
