yer the ice becket is on the list. but need a under tray and a smaller plate etc all at the same time so need to save.
not doing a bar conversion, personally i dont think it suits the runner but i love it on smaller peds. i do want the koso clocks tho haha
panels wise, i will in time probably fit an evo kit to replace all the panels in one go.
forks are what they are, they work for now so il leave them until funds allow.
windscreen and mirrors will also go, some smaller mirrors will go on like the str8 f1 style ones. been out on it today zipping around like a right chav! but i love it haha most importantly i want a 172 head etc for the powerzzz

welli had mentioned befopre that i had a Gilera runner i was working on. Paid £800 and took 4 hours round trip to get it.
Work done so far has been:
upgraded alloy engine bushes by shiney red tuning
New swing arm bushes kit
Oil pump realigned to give the correct fuel flow
Oil tank drained and cleaned and oil pump bled
Temp sensor changed
Coolant renewd
Battery wireing tidied and new bullets fitted
New rear brake pads
New front disc
New front pads
Spark plug
that list has got it back on the road and running very sweet! next up is a srt lightened flywheel and front pulley.
after that its a long save for a full engine rebuild with a 172 head and a 55mm crank etc for some out and out power!!!
The front pannel in the middle has been painted with vht paint (high temp exhaust LOL) as it was a mess, it sort of matches the grey inner pannels so itl do for now! oh and a cheeky shot of the rs aswell
hahaa i personally find 17s boring as theres no ragging the tits off it haha
my mate did the bar conversion on his typh and it looks quite nice as far as a ped goes haha and have a read into the koso runner clocks iv been told by a few people the needle's snap off and they stop working but cant say personly weather there good or not
have you evry played or fitted evo's befor i swear to god that was the worse head ace i have ever had nothing lines up =[
i agree with the forks but once you put a 17 on it the forks will fell crap and probly pop arfter 2 or 3 weeks as the front wheel cant stay on the floor =]
never fitted evos, but im told their good quality, just a lot thinner so can break if dropped easier etc. the koso clocks are a nice looking touch, but il have to look into reviews.
and hopefully the front wheel will be all over the place haha, the power of it as it stands is pretty dam good!
tail tidied until i can get a new smaller plate! also removed the screen and the broken mirror, if your gonna drive a ped you gotta do it proper, hoodie, mx gloves and a chavy voice saying "nice one bruva" LOL
mate thats not an airbox its a friggin caravan!!! its bloody massive and really spoils the rear end looks. It will be a dam loud foam stage 6 or something filter when i can sort the cash out to get it jetted and dynod
shes looking good, deffo need to change that airbox haha, also just to note, with the swirled number plate it can be unswirled too not that im going to do it, just saying so you know
my bikes aprillia af1 125 (striped down project ) , honda mt 50 : h100 engine rebuilt all by me along with the crank !, supermoto wheels , motorhispna swing arm , usds forks , geneli pipe , more stuff planned looking to get another dtr soon though !
Well been a while but il update as we all love a project right?
engine built (on my lonesome 8-( as my mate had a right faff on the day hahaha)
some parts painted and tidied, done 90 miles now running it in. So far only thing gone wrong is the o ring leaked from head to skull cap so off it came and replaced it and added a little sealant.
got a little video too, riding one handed and gentle on the power but youl get an idea of what its like while im running it in

tis indeed mph, its fully run in now and it goes like hell, off the clocks on standard gearing so cant imagine what a gear up would be like top end, but the speed it gets off the clocks is pretty unreal
pops the front on take off and then simply rips hard through the speedo lol
