lol i found a place in gosport that will do the frame for £80 as i'm gettin it blasted myself, but then i still gotta get all the other its done aswell so i reckon im lookin at a good few hundred, only reason i can do it is cause i stopped smokin the green stuff n have finished payin my car off so thought i would treat myself to a decent bike for once. Hows yours comin along? see you got a new axle n that the other day

Nice one man, orange frame will look good. If you do get it coated remember to put old bolts in holes and cover up the headstock bearing seating. I forgot and spent a day sanding it lol

NIce cheers for the tips, and for the bits look well nice. Gonna go for a kinda reverse of your frame with the main bit orange and the bits like 2stroke mount and rad mount white. might do a photoshop when i get the chance. Can you change the top headstock bearings for ballrace ones cause thats all they sell on wemoto and its annoying having to keep all the ball bearings in one place

the DTX rear wheel and disc will fit on the DTR swing arm and caliper IIRC. You just need the spindle/spacers.

How much you pay for the DTX parts?

Yes you can, the only difference between the swingarms is the colour and the way the brake bracket attaches and spacers ... oh and the chain to older models.

so a few lol

@jack yeah might be mate, ill see if I get this Caliper first tho
@Seiki what spaces would I need dtx or dtr? Will have to buy some Dtr ones as mine were missing.
Also found a powervalve servo for £35 for my loom so all's going well at mo. Decided I'm just gonna spray the frame myself for now. Once I've got myself a shed/workshop sorted I'm gonna strip the bike again and get all the fancy stuff. Just wanna get it on the road for now, doin my head in having no transport cry.gif
