safe man , anytime m8 i got a fair few bits an pieces got the servo faceplate to with the final cog if thats needed too Yeah good journey m8 that bike of yours looks sweet. wishin id grabbed a macci D's well i was up there now
theres a link for that Led tail tidy with indy brackets m8 found it
nice one mate looks great im the first person to see it in the flesh :) haha hope you got home okay bud and thx for those servo gears will fit them tmoz :D
good work on the seat, i never fitted one before and spent half a day getting it perfect, had to undo do the back and retighten it after a week cause it strecthed and got creases but now its stayed fine
I woulda thought you'd be needing a 34mm for that set up Trip, as for plugs I'd look at getting an iridium, big difference from standard, I found that iridiums were good when I fitted 6 for the Lexus, not needed a change in 3 years, just need a clean each service.
so did i m8 works tho i whacked it all on now an had a small raz round 5 mins ago mnnnnn cant say i aint impressed with at all got a slight leaky thermo housing to sort but the dt is now even more of an animal lol
does m8 1st thing i noticed low down power delivery is awsome too. only had a raz round the block need to get a jet from the store in the morning what size do ya rekon im on a 240 but im lookin for a bigger carb an maybe an rd350 reed block to slap in there too
i would keep standard carb and go to some shops my local scooter shop charges a fiver a jet but if its wrong u can take it back and swap it for a new one i did it on my ts i changed it about 15 times so saved myself a heap load
tried the 240 then the 250 got the 260 in there now all standard carb an inlet. it seems to feel pretty nice an the plug looks the right kinda browed off.
the better wheathers on the way to got bugs slappin me in the face yesterday so ya know its on its way
dont think im gunna bother anyway fells like a scam went to pay an hes sayin he wants a bank transfer insead of paypal now so i dont trust in the sale at all
anyone whos willing to risk there cash an recieve nothing there all yours if ya want em lol

For an extra 50cc(ish) it didn't feel like it was worth it.
Yes it would beat most other DT's but it still wasn't as fast as the ROTAX engine in the old Aprilias. I found that the Polini 160cc Kit just had a far better power output than the Athena. The porting on the Polini was just incredible. I was surprised what the powerband was like on the Aprilia. Ruthless to say the least.
Here is a video of our Aprilia running the 125 standard bore
My DT was boom ting! Was the talk of the whole school. But that athena kit was just ****! BUT!!! that was mys Athena kit. It was second hand as they are far too expensive. My bike may have not have been set up 100% correctly and the bore could have been damaged. Don't get me wrong it was quicker. Just not what I expect from an extra 50cc's. That's all. The ports wasn't nothing special. Nothing compared to the polini kit. YPVS isn't as good as the RAVE port either. My dt was just pinned open which may also be why it wasn't as good.
Nice one m8 yeah still have my big one end can both my dtrs are runnin standard front pipes an dep back boxes now tho .
did have the big one front pipe but the power delivery was to late on up the rev range for my liking
even tho when it warmed right up the revs used to redline easier with the standard front pipe your changing up a gear by 8 an half k to keep the power maxxed out but i find it works better overall tho

Nice bike mate, I see you the big one end can, is your front pipe still standard? i got the BIG ONE end can, with standard front pipe, seems to have a lot more power
