New frame
Aluminium rear part frame

And no worries about the frame, I didn't hear any complain about this.

For the price in France it's about 2 799.00 € (around 3 614 AUD) for th ycf and 2 490.00 € (around 3 215 AUD) for a LXR but whitout the Anima for the pitsterpro who come with a 150 yx 2 valves

Dont do it Swapper, if you do buy a YCF not a braaap

Was thinking the Factory 190. Pretty sure its the same bike. Want a 12" to ride and not many built KLX or CRF's around.

The braaap is a YCF... It has YCF logos all over it on the case etc....

Buy my klx if ya want swapper lol..


Oh and Lxr all the way , they still look like bunky crf50 style bikes with 12" wheels ... no thanks!

Style of plastics doesn't bother me too much. I was mainly looking at build quality. After seeing all the problems you had with your LXR first hand, was very cautious about buying anything Chinese.

Also, I bet you will want too much for your KLX, but humour me with a price.

Linkage or no linkage id own one they look tidy as !

 

[dynamicgs]

They are a midsize.. closer to CRF70 size... Build quality looks top shelf when looking at it in the flesh...

can any one explain to me why the red book price for a braaap factory 190 is 4500 and the lxr is 3299 at dhz? where does the extra cash go on the braaap?

 

[Hillz]

where does the extra cash go on the braaap?

braaads pocket

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

hahaha thought as much... i was checking out the specs on both and even tho its the same engine dhz list compression at 12/1 and braaap list it at 9/1 whats the go there? and the only difference i could see was the braaap had a elka rear shock and correct me if im wrong but the lxr looked like it had a dnm?

Braaap also run a mikuni 22mm on the Daytona, so there's another 200-250 of getting a decent carby. I have 3 of those carbies worst carby I've ever had.
Lxr has a linkage dnm rear shock and braaap has a Elka
Think Dhz sell the lxr with an oko now days?

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

so value for money the lxr must win then surely? i actually managed to swap a bloke one of those crappy mikunis for a 26mm oko was shocked the bloke said yes lmao

 

[motovert24]

Yea I'd like a ycf but I don't want to pay 4'5 when I can get the Lxr 1g cheaper
They don't have as many issues as people have been saying either..

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

i reckon il buy the lxr in a couple of months and then keep my dpro as a spare for mates to ride... i was looking at the ycf but as u say just 2 dear for what you get..

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

and the new bearing set up should make the maintenance a bit easier on linkage ie more time between services

I have a couple of Braaaps i would never buy a new one to dear new. You can pick up a good s/hand one with minimal hours on Gumtree etc. I know someone picked up a good Braaap 150 Daytona with 8 hours on it for $1200.
