I will be keeping an eye on the hipres mod, how are you going to do it? when I looked I thought it would be dificuilt to do it properly, those rear fenders on the x will have to be modded loads.

the fender itself has to be cut down on the sides the same way the original is to match the siide panels. hopefully it will come out alright

Are you sure you're just not mistaken it for float play?

no its floping all around sideways, and alot of uo and dow n play. when i bought the bike when i removed the exhaust it had a hole in the crankcase, so previous owner musthave run it without the oil in. the reason im thinking for another bottom end . as this one is fked so what about the rest of the bearings in the engine. if i score a cheap bottom end i will go for that and get this one rebuilded for the future

instead of cutting the frame i ordered some fibreglass and going to get it all reshaped to fit like new without showing the frame but still staying pointy

Yeah good conversion so far. I take it that stuff just sands down to a nice smooth finish. I would do the same on mines but my paint is to good after it was done professionally. Good work.

get another chepo fender from ebay and mess with it, if you want i have got a yz 125 rear fender cut in half as its slimer than the dt is. but you can have it and mess with some fiberglass with that, i have got the front fender from a yz if anybody wants it, all you have to do is cover the p&p
