So I bought a motovert for myself,
To top it off it's the pick of the lot, haha
Spx hubs, dnm piggy back rear shock,
Extended billet swingarm and gpx black labels and an oko 26mm
Now the down side, it blows a crap tonne of smoke, haha I'll whack a new head on it and see what that does, might stick a TB piston in,
Depends what the wallet looks like hahahaImage1459470364.578723.jpg
Should be a good thing!

Great bike! I know Zach has a pretty much brand new v2 head i think he would be happy to sell.

The head is on, and does nice things, doesn't pour smoke anymore but it has low Comp and still blows abit, I've got a new piston on order and I'll whack that in it and see how that goes

Cheers MM it is pretty clean haha
Was playing with it last and discovered the clutch case was stripped on the head oil feed line, and I'm not keen on heli coiling it, Ive got another case to put on so I've cleaned that up and I'll give it a whirl, I'm going to clean out the cases too, but of sludge, hopefully run a few lots of oil through it to clear it

Nice man. Zach's good like that.

Ride the thing before you go nuts doing stuff like you usually do!! haha
 
Love a few good side blocks. Pretty sure Loco has seen a few already haha.
Still waiting for you to bring down the nugget so we can touch all on it.
 
Yeah sadly hahah
I know I know, in time good sir!
Nah this one is going to be left alone and not molested!

Bahahahah sure is! Lol
I'm going to replace the linkage bolts, but yeah this bike is going to be a somewhat stocker

Keeping a bike stock is not cool at all. You need your own flare on your bikes.
 
Yeah age I can send you that for sure! I'll have to find an old set from the other lxr I did a while back, it'll have to be like on Monday or something haha
Gearing will be changed and maybe a sticker kit later

Just ordered a set of stainless steel a2 grade socket cap bolts for the little beast, and surprisingly the bolts weren't snapped, I'll be running stainless 304 washers and spring washers too, also some medium strength loctite, and maybe some 518 loctite flange sealant to keep the sprocket from spinning on the bolts and destroying them, hopefully that'll be here by the end of the week,
