you all talking.

AND

the first bike my old crf70 style bike and the 2nd the ycf factory pilot
both great bikes :boink::boink::p but i like the geometry of crf70 better
but the ycf has all the good bits EG: elka rear shock, marzocchi forks and Daytona 150
better rims sooooooo that leads me to this

crf70 style frame blasted and painted 2k red
elka rear
marzocchi up front
i swapped rims with my bro so i got the red hubs
them i hand polished the rims
Daytona 150 feed by 26mm oko ( still playing with the EFI )


still got a lot of stuff to do none of my 3 bikes have been ridden in over 6 months
i need to get a set of plastics but not sure what colour to get :confused-smiley-014

need to get some new rubber cause i gave the bro my new treads with my rims
as that was the only way he would part with his rims


let me know what you all think and let the braaap bashing begin :cheeky-smiley-031:
 
Nice as man, I'm loving the crf70 geom too. Have you considered some genuine red/white plastic set and maybe a simple custom sticker set?
 
I was thinking red but then could that be to much red?
Maybe white with a red as the main color on sticker kit
 
looking good man, im a fan of the crf70 style too...

just a little warning tho, those frames wont handle lots of massive air so keep an eye on it..
 
Why is that Sean? Its not the cheap style frame with single
top tube and tin folded to look like 2

It dose have the 2 tubes if that's what the worry is
and the bottom engine/swingarm mount is not a pressed piece
its made from 5mm plate welded together


I have seen these frames take a fair bit of a pounding but it is still made in China
and I wold be crazy not to keep a eye on it

EDIT:::::::::pIC'S ADDED
