Psto.. my new/second hand Lxr clone

[unit1]

Where did you get those from?

Sorry for the thread jack.

I got the rear rim from psto when they shut down and I got the 14 inch front stright from the factory in china
they are very strong best rims ive seen yet

I definately need a new shock, the stock one is to spongy for me and has no adjustments. Can anyone tell me how much better the elka is over the adjustable dnm? Not sure if I should buy the dnm in the next few weeks, or save for a couple of months and get the elka..

How much is that costing roughly? If its cheaper than the elka option I may look at it..

New grips replaced the brake fluid on the front brakes, it was rather nasty!

Let me know how much you want and send me a pic if possible?

180 for shock shipped from the US and around $120-160 for resizing! im also changing the spring and getting them to do a once over!

That is cheap as, let me know how it all feels when done. Have you ridden a bike with a elka? Really want a comparison from someone that has ridden them all...

 

[nicko451]

was only a putt around so hard to tell!

Got the valve covers today, thanks motorman
Just in time for a big ride planned with a few mates saturday!

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

Thought I would save my new rims so i slapped the ycf braaap hubs andnrims on the psto for tomorrow. Changing the valve covers over, checking valve clearances and cleaning the air filter now but she looked so sexy I had to take a quick pic

 

[xLOCOx]

yeah, your right big man, its purty sexy!!!
so any updates on the stickkkkerrrrs? lel hahaha

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

Cant tell you that, there has to be some mystery in life!

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

Whoops!

So after a huge week of riding (clocked 28hrs just this week) my bike is stuffed AGAIN! I can hear the clutch basket tapping against the crank gear, it has a stuffed head bolt, and its smoking that bad its not funny. I also have false neutral issues throughout the whole gearbox . Im leaning towards replacing with a anima, then i wont have to wring its neck as much to keep up to the jap bikes. If anyone is selling second hand pm me..
