Cheers guys biggrin , the seat cover I got from a local car refurb place , one of those under the bridge type garages hmm .

The materials black but they have all sorts , your best bet is to go onto those industrial estates you always pass . Go to an ICE shop and ask which local material guy they use . Ask bike shops which guy they get to refurb their bikes  smile .

Black and Grey really mate. But at worst just black.

Yeah phoned all the bike spots around here, even a good KTM specialist and none of them could retrim it in that material.

Even tried all the material shops in town but nothing.

Its really hard stuff to find other than ready cut seats but Im guessing they will all be too small at the DT has a huge seat!

Looks like I'm back in business  :D

Plan this week is to get my plastics and tyres .. and maybe a couple other bits I need .

I've ordered an Acerbis front fender and should arrive soon .

Nightmare trying to order off that HPires site so will be getting the plastics from the eBay guy .

Tyres I'm going for the Avon's .

That's the plan anyway , will have pics soon enough

Here's those cylinder and caliper bolts , £4 each as mine were mostly rounded . Also new bolts for the chain guide and swingarm ends


 


Didn't need to buy more sprocket or disc bolts mine just needed cleaning . Saves £20


I've got half a bike in spare bolts now , most of them are fine and reusable tbh . I'm deciding whether to keep them or not



Anyways , front fender should be here tomorrow or day after

Handguards I put off btw , want to see a few before i just buy a random set

Still undecided about what graphics if any tbh , would like to see the whole thing together at least as a mock up before I start putting stickers on it .

Fenders turned up , not 100% happy though as it's a bit off white , spoke to the shop I bought it from and he said they're all like that but feel free to exchange it . Fcuk that I've already cut it up so it could fit the wiring loom . Looks good

Pics a bit later as I'm now off to go pick up the tyres ...


Oh also ordered all my plastics , will be here whenever

Wheels are on , got my front wheel back so time for quick mock up .

I'm now loving how huge they look

Tried out the front fender but it's only got primer on at the moment . Later on I'll be putting the rim tape on and finish painting the fender

Oh yeah forgot about them , I checked them out for the normal DTR wheels and I think they worked out cheaper than the OEM set blankstare

Don't have any extra funds to add them to the list right now , especially since I have a brand new OEM one sitting here . Down the line maybe confuse

Yeah mate i'm doon souf biggrin

Have you seen Henz's bike ? I know you're set on green frame man but personally I don't think you should , even the orange frame sounds better but bright . I'm just being honest mate and obviously it's just my opinion . Green with everything looks good but I know you can get it looking a bit better than that biggrinbiggrin

Here's his thread , awesome bike but the green's kinda been done , even though it's not his actual frame that's been painted , you can still class it as a green and black bike ...therefore done before .

http://www.activeboard.com/forum.spark?forumID=66365&p=3&topicID=23680507

But please do whatever you like the most , end of the day it's your bike , your ideas . I just give suggestions as well as take them confuse
