CRF/MONKEY ROAD LEGAL HYBRID INFO FOR WOGTAZ RYDER

[FVEJ]

Hi Wogtaz,

You posted up some questions about how to fit/if it is possible to fit CRF plastics to a road legal Honda Monkey frame on the Monkeygarage site prior to things going pear-shaped over there.

I said I would have a look around for the old G-Craft catalogue showing a kit used for this mod, that G-Craft used to sell. The parts are listed in the 2005 G-Craft catalogue, and they are no longer available for sale. I cant even find any pics of this kit on the intraweb via the part numbers, so these parts are definitely gone for good, but the pics might give you some ideas about how to build the CRF/Monkey Hybrid you were asking about on MG site. The G-Craft kit was designed to work with CRF70 plastics only.

I have taken a pic of the kit from G-Craft catalogue (no pics of this kit are available on line now), so not the best quality, but you can see how it was done. I think someone suggested a similar idea on MG: welding a CRF subframe to a road legal Monkey frame. The G-Craft parts do the same job, but were a bolt on kit. Might be hard to fab up a kit like this from scratch, but hopefully these pics will give you some ideas/a place to start.

While I don't suggest any one do it, at least not without doing it right,,, it seems like an under-tank saw & weld job would put rego'd numbers on an off-road frame?

Damo, once yer arse is a little less young and firm (taking Dryer's word for it...) you may wanna look at a regular Monkey seat, instead of the skinny brick of an off-roader
