After all the time and money spent etc , I would have been better off buying a DTX or a bigger bike . But now It's all done I can live with it , just wouldn't go to the trouble again . Plus I still kinda prefer the off-road look

Moog ...
Go to Page ... 5 of your big re-build thread ! Last Post .. Jan 14th 2008 ...
Sad Day M8 ...
S Moto ?
Noooooooooooooo !
Your about to turn one of the finest 2t Trailies, for anyone, of any age, and any experience ....
Into a slow road bike ....
Don't Do It .....
I Fookin Told U So ... !!
If it's any consolation, you would be bored to death with Slowness .. even if you had bought a DRZ400 !
[Which is no use to you, wot' wiv' Da' CBT Pass !]
Whatever you ride, it's only a stepping stone to a 100 + Hoss bike anyway, and you would get bored of the Sloooow ..
At least in trail guise, your saying .. 'WTF .. R6 boy?' .. 'I may not be fast, but i can paddle through $hite & Mud for fun !'
And anyhow .. if you had built it as a trailie you would be hankering after S/Moto setup !
Your never gonna be happy m8, whatever you do with it !
[I recognize the M.O. !!!!] ..
[& the OCD !!!]
And ..
A year ago I was trying to talk you out of it .
But ..
Im now considering going S/Moto with mine !!!!!
Bikes Huh
Whod F*cking Have Em . !
Chill Out ... [Literally !] And wait for the good weather ... Your not getting a good view of this DT lark .. Proper baptism of fire [cold, wet, london !!!]
Arrange a day [weekend !] out in June with Crazy & the boys.. [Borrow a van to get you down there !?] Just don't be sulking when he smokes you on the 650 !

Yeah I think you're right , every trip I've been on so far it's raining or snowing . Haven't been able to test out the fantastic cornering etc . But for what it is the speed doesn't bother me , it's just SIZE of the bike if that makes sense . The SM wheels have made it slower , feel like I'm riding a mini moto lol . I'm not tall at all just remember how tall it was with the off-road wheels and kinda preferred the height . Not changing it though , happy with it just like you say , will always think grass is greener etc ...
haha yeh engine was from a garage in exeter, was booking the bike in for MOT, saw the engine in the corner and asked the guy bout it, Apprently only done 2000 miles as hes fitted a kx 250 engine into his and uses it for hill climbing. Offered him 60 quid for it and he said yes! lol.
Delve you been very busy mate, also how easy does that front headlight go on, I got one in black yet to put it on, but is the wiring easy? thanks mate
Its easy to put on, i just drilled some extra holes in the plastic mounting to make it sit closer to the clocks, i havent wired it in yet, i think seiki has the same one so was going to ask him
