If you are gunna upsize your wheels i'll buy your 10's off ya if you like.

Thought we'd try something a little different than the usual paddock bashing. Some very tricky sand tracks.

Rider #1 feel off, now has a very sore back. Rider # 2 flipped over the handle bars, now has a very sore, potentially broken collar bone. And me, broke some brand new plastic and the front brake lever.

I guess it's back to some white plastics.

i reckon its time for a new rear tyre mate!!!
and your chain looks really loose becoz the chain roller is gone! might be best to get these with your next order:
HD Black Nylon Chain Roller - DHZ Mini Moto
Kenda Millville Red MX Tyre - 2.75 -10 Motocross - eBay, Other Accessories, Motorcycle Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 01-Sep-10 00:59:56 AEST)
yes they are red but hey they will stand out!

chain rollers dont really tighten your chain.... its more to keep it from flicking off the sprockets

looks more like he needs to tighten hes chain or get a new one

also your bike would look and ride 10 times better with some protapers

Yeah might want to think about buying some foldable levers, as these solid ones are really easy to break as you may know.

Oh and think about investing in a preasure washer if you havent already. (great for cleaning extremely muddy and sandy bikes)

Just a few pics. Painted up the original white plastics for the rear, I had originally sanded them back a few weeks ago.

New chain roller is sitting at my cousin's place ready to go on. It's just a matter of picking it up.

The best it's ever looked, so far. Fix the tensioner, tightened the chain, fixed the sprocket, new brake lever, white plastics back on the rear, etc.

Gave it a decent spray down after a few days of riding.

about time you cleaned this...

i was gunna say havnt you heard of a quick wash???
obviously not

 

[Nuts 4 50s]

Haha Yeah looks way different to when you started.

Looking good, What plans do you have for it next?

Thinking quite a lot about putting a 14" on the front, 12" on the rear.

10inchers are fun and all, but I'd really like a little more clearance and I think I'd feel a lot more comfortable sitting a little higher.

Yeah man to true, 10/10s are great for flat tracks and smoother surfaces.

I have a 14/12 and thats way smoother than my 10/10. And at the end of the day your still having fun and thats all that matters. 10/10 or full size bike its all good.

Just choose what you feel is a best fit for you.

Mate you would be pushing it with a 14 inch rim, the tyre would connect the engine and plate on heavy impact, its the old short frame on your rig, she looks sik anyway mate, good job.

Yeah good point, Maybe go 12 inch front and keep the 10 inch back. 14/12 may work you never know, but yeah its kinda like sticking mud tyres on a mini. But could work. Best way is to research and ask questions.

Hope you sort it out to what suits you best, keep us informed of your decision.

What did you re spray the frame with?

Water. And a pressure sprayer.

I assume thats what you meant.
