Sweet, so needs spacers and it'll fit? :D

Bikes gonna be looking siiiiick dude.

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

Cheers, its no roof terrace though ;)
Yeah a few spacers and jobs a goodun. If some one could measure the width of part of the dt engine that fits between the swing arm ill measure the wr one and see if it'll fit.

eG x LoGiKzZ · Guru

quickly used a tape measure and its 70mm, someone else should check to confirm though

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

Right, the gap between the pivots is bang on 80mm and the width of the pivots are 60mm. If anyones interested, when I make my spacers I'll make a load more if people want to fit a wr swing arm.

Seems I need to spend some more time on Ebay. I always miss that kinda ****. Time to download the Ebay sniping app..

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

Just copied it off the bay.

slob · Guru

Some bargains to be had the now on there. Slinky off here pout a load of good stuff on and some of it wasn't even bid on at 99p lol. Just annoying when you do find yourself in a bidding war you end up paying over the odds sometimes if you really want something.

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

Yeah ive had that a few times, most of the stuff ive sold over the years Ive got pence for but some where ive got good money. I think ive been lucky with a few bit, especialy the wheels!

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

its an R1/R6/FZ1 caliper. 100mm bolt spacing so it'll bolt straight onto my fork leg.

Calum122 · Guru

Good catch. I've had to make a bracket to fit my brakes LMAO!

Looks good though.

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

To get round the fuel tank issue... Ive been looking at wr4## tanks... Then the seat and rest of the plastics lol. Too far?

Calum122 · Guru

Yeah these are off a 2003 model. Paid far too much for them but hey ho such is life.

Calum122 · Guru

O and Nath DO IT!

Energized · DTR Legend

GO BIG OR GO HOME BABY #YOLO!

eG x LoGiKzZ · Guru

usd's would make another nice little upgrade to your bike nathan, i think you should do it! id say stick with dt tank and panels, would seem to getting further away from it being a dt and more into a wr, just my opinion but would look great either way! biggrin

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

The only way to check if the WR450 tank will do the job is the nobslap test! whack ya tinkler out and slap the tank, no dents in it and its good to go

NathanH · DTR Senior Member

Lol. Yeah think ill keep with the dt panels or like you said itll just look like a wr
