Get a steel pedal, heat bend and repeat till it works, I got an over the top to work out.
 
I used an oxy set to heat. I would say that an under would be easier but the over the top is well worth the trouble.
 
update:

i've been cought up in assingments and formal stuff at school so progress is slow. finally got around to ordering some triple clamps last week which arrived today. looks trick me thinks:thumbup:. only graphics, plastics and brakes to go.

hey all, been a while since i last posted an update. this is how she stands and i wont be adding anything else on for a while. all that needs to be done is rear brakes and graphics. ive been riding it around as is for a while (12hrs to be precise :)) and it goes hard. jetting is pretty much spot on but it is just slightly rich to be on the safe side. i might even have to sell/part it out soon as i want more coin to throw towards stuff for my 4x4. anyways, its been great fun building this beast and thanks to all the members that gave me great advice:action-smiley-035:.

heres some pics, its a bit dirty and a few bumps and scuffs but you get that from 12hrs ride time.

Hey mate that's looking awesome

But my opinion is the red would look better if it was a candy or metallic red like the triple clamps

but hey that's 1 opinion out of the rest of the site.
 
Oh yeah is the paint you used on the covers heat proof?

Because ordinary paint wont last long on there.

yeah mate, i used high temp engine enamel. you would have to be a complete idiot to use normal paint lol



looks good mate where are the action pics

thanks mate, i mite get the helmet cam out for some riding vids. just waiting for this rain to clear up :(
 
today i spent the morning putting brakes on the bike. i got an under-footpeg brake pedal, did some cutting, grinding, welding and drilling and hey presto, and over-the- top brake pedal :). then i got my old twin piston brakes of my 125 atomik, wacked em on, bled them, hooked it up to my pedal and now ive got brilliant back brakes!:cool:. oh, and i bought a genuine bbr klx100 perimeter zorst for a steal too

heres some pics, pedal still needs paint tho.

thanks mate, im goin to paint the logo on the clutch cover too when i get the chance.


so stoked that its nearly done:D:D:D just got to get graphics and wait for this zorst to turn up:D:D:D

i was thinking of gettin some custom graphics made up, does anyone know of a good company that makes custom graphics for klx110 plastics? if i cant, then i'll find something on ebay.

Personally I'd recommend Magik SC custom graphics. There one of best priced custom graphic kit makers and they specialize in pit bikes. Im getting some graphics made now and I have to admit there service is great.
