Chesters 2010 CRF50 Project

[chester_fb]

Hey guys,

picked this little bike up brand new for $1500, thought that was pretty good as it was marked down from $2200

Completely stock at the moment, first mods will be bigger bars and better tyres. First ride crashed it about 5 times due to the front tyre not having any grip.

Its much more fun to ride than the mid size bike just because its so small and can throw it around anywhere.

Heres a pic next to my other pit bike which we managed to seize the engine in a couple of hours later.

UPDATE: Mods:

TB 88cc Big bore kit
Redbaron BMX bar kit
Redbaron fork springs
Pro taper grips
DHZ Bash plate
HD pegs

[09crf_149]

Nice pick up man, Whats your plans after the bigger bars and new tyres?

Also what bars are you thinking of going with?

 

[chester_fb]

Still not 100% sure on what to do after that, 88cc big bore kit? could be fun? also definitely need some stiffer springs in her.

 

[Nuts 4 50s]

Ok sweet, sounds good, Keep us updated.

 

[chester_fb]

oh and i'm thinking of just going with pro taper bars.

 

[wogtaz ryder]

you will need a bar clamp to run tapers if you didnt no. and a new throttle , stock wont fit 7/8 bars . and then ya mite need longer cables lol..

 

[chester_fb]

yeah man i know, pain in the ass! i'm probably off just buying a bar kit

 

[mini mullisha]

get a bmx bar kit not an mx 1 , bmx way better feel for 50

 

[chester_fb]

whats the difference between them? are the mx style ones longer instead of higher?

 

[bradisfun]

yea thats right, they also have more bend in them like the bend back towards them where as bmx is more straight

 

[chester_fb]

ahh okay cheers, sounds like they would be more suited to the 50s
